EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Chicago World's Fair of 1893, specifically to the Michigan Logging Camp exhibit. The image transports us to a time when America was celebrating its 400th anniversary since Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of a logging camp but also in its connection to the grand exhibition that marked an important milestone for both Chicago and the nation. As part of "The Magic City" a portfolio showcasing original photographic views of the Great World's Fair, this particular illustration captures a slice of history. Stepping into this snapshot, we can almost hear the sounds of axes striking wood and see wisps of sawdust floating through the air. It serves as a reminder that while technological advancements were being celebrated at exhibitions like these, traditional industries such as logging still played an integral role in shaping America's growth. As we commemorate anniversaries and birthdays throughout our lives, it is essential to remember events like this world exhibition that brought together people from all walks of life. This print allows us to glimpse into a bygone era, where exhibitors proudly showcased their trades amidst towering structures and bustling crowds. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this piece from Fine Art Finder as more than just an old photograph; it becomes a window into our shared past at one of history's most significant gatherings – The Chicago World's Fair.
