1889 Acres Chaillot Champ Covered Dome Exposition Held Larger Main Mars Occupying Previously Scale
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a breathtaking view of the Paris Exhibition of 1889 from the dome, looking to the right. The exposition, which covered an unprecedented area of over 66 acres (270,000 m2), was the largest of its kind ever held in the world. The main building in the Champ de Mars and the hill of Chaillot, occupying 54 acres (220,000 m2) between them, were the epicenter of this grand event. The Gare du Champ de Mars was specially rebuilt with four tracks to accommodate the increased rail traffic brought about by the exposition. The intricate design of the structures, the vibrant colors of the pavilions, and the sense of excitement in the air are all beautifully captured in this image. The Paris Exhibition of 1889 was a testament to human ingenuity and the power of collaboration, attracting millions of visitors from around the world and leaving an indelible mark on the history of international exhibitions.
