EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph, taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, transports us back to a momentous event in history - The World's Columbian Exposition held in Chicago in 1893. The image showcases the grandeur of "The Electricity Building" a magnificent structure that stood as a testament to mankind's progress and innovation. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we are reminded of the excitement and wonder that filled the air during this world-famous fair. The building itself exudes elegance with its intricate architectural details and towering presence against the backdrop of Columbus' statue. This photograph was originally featured as an illustration for "The Dream City" a portfolio capturing various photographic views of this extraordinary exposition. It serves as both documentation and artistry, encapsulating not only the physicality but also the spirit of this historic event. In an era where electricity was still relatively new and awe-inspiring, it is no surprise that "The Electricity Building" became one of its main attractions. This print allows us to witness firsthand how electricity transformed spaces into dazzling displays, illuminating every corner with brilliance. Let us marvel at this snapshot frozen in time – a testament to human ingenuity and our unyielding desire for progress. Through photography's lens, we can relive these celebrations from over a century ago while appreciating how far we have come since then.
