The Japanese Lantern in the Public Garden is the answer to our latest Attention to Detail hunt. Yesterday, we gave you this clue.

Here are two more photos from the Boston Public Library's Leslie Jones Collection.

This one is in summer and shows both Swan Boats and rowboats on the Lagoon. Here's a link to learn more about it.

Here's another Leslie Jones winter scene with the lantern near the top center. Here's a link to this photo.

As you walk around Boston, you can play our game of "Attention to Detail" by looking for our clues or trying to recall where you've seen them. 

In addition to playing it here from time to time, Penny has two newspaper columns in the Back Bay Sun and Beacon Hill Times where readers are given a photo detail of a building each week. The following week, they learn where it's located and a bit about that detail or that building.

If you missed the detail, you can click here see it.

Click here is for our complete Attention to Detail collection.
