EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Prudential Building, Buffalo, N.Y. ca 1900," is a stunning representation of architectural history captured by the skilled lens of William H. Jackson. The image showcases the impressive facade of the Prudential Building, located in Buffalo, New York, during the early 1900s. The building, a National Historic Landmark, was designed by the renowned architectural duo Dankmar Adler and Louis Henry Sullivan, who are considered pioneers of the Chicago School of architecture. The photograph, taken as a dry plate negative using an 8 x 10 inch camera, beautifully captures the intricate details of the building's exterior. The Guaranty Building, another masterpiece by Adler and Sullivan, can be seen in the background, further emphasizing the architectural significance of this scene. The Prudential Building's facade is adorned with intricate ornamentation, with the most striking feature being the pair of horses at the base of the building. The horses, which are believed to represent strength and reliability, add a unique touch to the modern, innovative design of the skyscaper. This photograph, taken by William H. Jackson for Detroit Publishing Company, is a testament to the rich architectural heritage of Buffalo and the United States as a whole. It is now part of the collections of the Library of Congress, making it a valuable resource for historians, architects, and anyone interested in the history of American architecture.
