EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Chicago World's Fair of 1893, a momentous event that marked the anniversary of Christopher Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492. The image showcases the magnificent Statue of the French Republic, standing tall amidst a sea of bustling exhibition grounds. The statue itself is an emblematic representation of liberty and democracy, embodying the ideals cherished by both France and America. Its presence at this grand celebration symbolizes the strong bond between these two nations. Captured by an anonymous American photographer from the 19th century, this photograph was later featured as an illustration in "The Magic City" a remarkable portfolio showcasing original photographic views of this extraordinary world fair. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and progress during that era. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the marvels exhibited at one of history's most significant events. The Chicago World's Fair brought together exhibitors from around the globe who showcased their innovations and cultural treasures for all to admire. This print not only commemorates a milestone birthday but also pays homage to an unforgettable chapter in our shared history. It reminds us how exhibitions like these have shaped our world today and continue to inspire generations with their awe-inspiring displays.
