EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment from the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. The image showcases the majestic Doorway of the Cathedral of Bordeaux, an architectural masterpiece that was transported all the way from France to be exhibited at this grand event. The photograph, taken by an anonymous American photographer from the 19th century, beautifully portrays the intricate details and exquisite craftsmanship of this historic doorway. Its inclusion in "The Magic City" a portfolio edited by J. W. Buel, further solidifies its significance as one of the standout attractions at the fair. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to a period when world exhibitions were celebrated with great enthusiasm and wonder. The Chicago World's Fair marked both Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492 and commemorated its 400th anniversary. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and cultural heritage while also honoring significant anniversaries such as birthdays or special events. It is a testament to human achievement, showcasing not only architectural marvels but also highlighting how different cultures come together on such occasions. Bridgeman Images has preserved this valuable piece of history for us to admire and appreciate today. Let it serve as an inspiration for future generations who continue to celebrate innovation, creativity, and global unity through exhibitions like these.
