Chicago Kings and Queens

CTA riders, be on the lookout! The Art Institute of Chicago has transformed selected seats on the Red Line into replicas of Renaissance-era thrones to promote its latest exhibition, "Kings, Queens and Courtiers: Art in Early Renaissance France". Take a photo of yourself in the throne and upload them to the Art Institute of Chicago's Facebook page for a chance to win royal treatment at the museum, including a private tour of the Art Institute, a hardcover Kings, Queens and Courtiers catalogue and an overnight stay for two at the Palmer House Hilton.

Also, be on the lookout when you are out shopping. Mirror clings in retail venues like Bloomingdale’s transform Chicagoans' reflections into that of crowned royalty.

"Say thee what thou wilt about the pitchy times we liveth in, nay twas there e’er a carriage in the Middles Ages as majestic as the #Segway." The antiquated (yet sometimes scandalous) 15th century collides with modern times as @CourtierRobert shares humorous insights from the point of view of a Renaissance courtier with a penchant for pop culture.

Man it has to be hard for a man of the 15th century to speak in 140 characters or less.

*out of breath* that's a lot of stuff. Brought to you by Energy BBDO.
