EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in time - the Chicago Worlds Fair of 1893. The image showcases the North Side of the Grand Basin, providing a glimpse into the grandeur and scale of this iconic event. The Chicago Worlds Fair, also known as the World's Columbian Exposition, was held to commemorate Christopher Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492. It was an exhibition that celebrated progress, innovation, and cultural exchange. In this photograph, we see a bustling scene with various structures lining the basin's edge. These buildings were home to exhibitors from around the world who showcased their inventions, artistry, and culture to millions of visitors. The significance of this photo lies not only in its depiction of a milestone event but also in its connection to history itself. It serves as a reminder of how far society has come since then while honoring those who contributed to shaping our modern world. As we celebrate the anniversary or birthday party of this extraordinary exhibition through this image captured by an American photographer from the 19th century (after), it is evident that even after all these years, its impact continues to resonate within us. This print allows us to travel back in time and experience firsthand one of history's most remarkable moments at the Chicago Worlds Fair.
