EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the Chicago World's Fair of 1893, a momentous event that celebrated the anniversary of Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492. The image showcases "Types of All Nations in the Plaisance" an exhibition that highlighted various cultures from around the world. The Plaisance was a vibrant area within the fairgrounds where different nations exhibited their unique customs, traditions, and artifacts. This photograph captures a snapshot of this diverse showcase, giving us a glimpse into history and reminding us of the significance of cultural exchange. Taken by an American photographer from the 19th century, this image is part of a private collection. It was originally featured as an illustration for "The Magic City" a comprehensive portfolio documenting views from this grandiose world's fair edited by J. W. Buel. As we admire this historical photograph, we are transported to an era when exhibitions like these were at their peak popularity. The Chicago World's Fair served as a platform for exhibitors worldwide to share their heritage with millions who flocked to witness technological marvels and experience new cultures firsthand. Today, this print serves as both a testament to our rich history and as inspiration for future celebrations of diversity and innovation.
