EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "Throwing the First Stone" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Captured by an American photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases a pivotal event during The World's Columbian Exposition held in Chicago in 1893. The composition portrays a grand celebration where an individual is seen dramatically hurling the first stone. This symbolic act marks the commencement of an extraordinary show that would captivate visitors from all corners of the world. The energy and anticipation are palpable as onlookers eagerly await what lies ahead. The Dream City, A Portfolio of Photographic Views of The Worlds Columbian Exposition, serves as the inspiration for this powerful illustration. It offers us a glimpse into one of humanity's greatest achievements - showcasing technological advancements, cultural diversity, and artistic marvels. As we gaze upon this print now housed within a private collection, we can't help but be transported to that era when progress was celebrated with great fervor. Through photography's lens, we witness not only historical milestones but also appreciate its ability to immortalize moments that shape our collective memory. Let this evocative image remind us of our shared human spirit - one that seeks innovation, unity, and wonderment even amidst challenging times.
