EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the breathtaking view of the Administrative Building at the Chicago World's Fair of 1933, as seen from the shores of Lake Michigan. The image transports us back in time to the heart of the Roaring Twenties and the excitement of the 1930s. The International Exposition of Chicago, also known as the "World's Fair," was held from May 27 to November 30, 1933, and attracted millions of visitors from around the world. The Administrative Building, designed by architects Holabird & Root, was the centerpiece of the fairgrounds and housed the administrative offices, the President's Palace, and the Congress Hall. This imposing structure, with its Art Deco design and Beaux-Arts influences, stands as a symbol of the optimism and progress of the era. The building's grandeur is further emphasized by its reflection on the tranquil waters of Lake Michigan, creating a stunning mirror image. The Chicago World's Fair of 1933 was a significant event in American history, showcasing the latest technological, cultural, and industrial achievements of the United States and the world. This photograph not only captures the architectural beauty of the Administrative Building but also encapsulates the spirit of innovation and unity that defined the fair. This photograph is part of the Mary Evans / Grenville Collins Postcard Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, and it offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the architectural marvels and historical significance of the Chicago World's Fair of 1933.
