EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Chicago in the 1930s. Standing tall on the right is the majestic Railway Exchange building, its grand facade a testament to the city's architectural prowess. On Michigan Avenue, we catch a glimpse of another iconic structure, the W Strauss building, exuding elegance and sophistication. In this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn past one of the magnificent lions guarding the entrance to the renowned Chicago Art Institute. These regal sculptures symbolize strength and majesty, perfectly complementing their surroundings. The composition captures both architecture and art harmoniously intertwined - two pillars that define this great city. The railway tracks running alongside add an element of movement and connectivity to this urban landscape. As we immerse ourselves in this archival photograph by General Photographic Agency/Getty Images, we can't help but feel transported back to an era where these buildings stood as beacons of progress and innovation. With no people present in sight, it allows us to focus solely on these remarkable structures that have become synonymous with Chicago's rich history. This vertical portrait format emphasizes their towering presence against a backdrop of street life. It serves as a reminder that even amidst change and modernization over time, these famous landmarks continue to shape Chicago's identity as an architectural marvel in North America.
