EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Wabash Avenue, Chicago, Illinois in the 1870s. The detailed illustration, created by Rev Samuel Manning circa 1880, showcases the architectural beauty and historical charm that defined this era. As we gaze upon this antique image, we are transported to a different world. The avenue is lined with elegant buildings and houses that exude grandeur and sophistication. Tall trees frame the scene, casting shadows on the footpath below. It's as if we can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages passing by and catch a glimpse of people going about their daily lives. The vertical composition adds a sense of height and scale to the picture, emphasizing the towering structures that dominate Wabash Avenue. Each stroke of Manning's pen captures intricate details with precision and skill, allowing us to appreciate every architectural nuance. This print serves as a window into American history - an opportunity for us to reflect on how cities have evolved over time while still preserving their unique character. It reminds us of our roots and invites contemplation on how these historic buildings continue to shape our present-day urban landscapes. Ken Welsh has masterfully preserved this piece of artistry from yesteryears for all enthusiasts of architecture, history, or simply those who appreciate timeless beauty captured in ink.
