Vintage Postcard Lot Indiana University Auditorium Bloomington Student Fountain

The two postcards document the cultural hub of the Indiana University Bloomington campus, the idealized mid-century atmosphere of Midwestern campus life.

On the far left, a small group of students or visitors sits resting on the stone steps leading down to the plaza. On the right side, a couple stands at the edge of the fountain terrace, admiring the leaping water jets and Laurent's central bronze Venus sculpture.
