EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide depicts the Whitehorse Inn corner building at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, also known as the World's Columbian Exposition. The Fair, held from May to October 1893, marked the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas and showcased the latest technological, industrial, and cultural achievements of the time. The Whitehorse Inn, located in the Agricultural Building, was a popular attraction for visitors. This corner building, with its intricate architectural details, served as a meeting place and refreshment station for fairgoers. The model of a horse atop the building added to its charm and became an iconic symbol of the Fair. The image captures the essence of the bustling Fair with the Whitehorse Inn standing proudly in the corner. The intricate details of the building's architecture, from the ornate cornices to the decorative trim, are on full display. The model horse, perched atop the building, adds a whimsical touch to the scene. The lantern slide, part of the Boswell Collection from Chicago Exposition, offers a unique glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of innovation and discovery. The Whitehorse Inn at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair remains an enduring symbol of the Fair and a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the era.
