Capturing the Essence of Chicago's Glamorous Past - The Palmolive Building
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This stunning print takes us back in time to the vibrant cityscape of 1935 Chicago. Standing tall on Michigan Avenue, the iconic art deco Palmolive Building dominates the skyline with its majestic presence. Built as a soap manufacturing firm headquarters between 1927 and 1929, this architectural masterpiece later became synonymous with another cultural phenomenon - Playboy magazine. The image showcases a mesmerizing time lapse effect, emphasizing the dynamism and energy that once pulsed through these streets. A navigational beacon crowns the top of the building, guiding ships towards safety while adding an enchanting glow to the night sky. Adjacent to it stands another historic landmark - the Old Water Tower, erected in 1869. Together, these structures represent a harmonious blend of old-world charm and modernity. As we gaze upon this scene devoid of people but brimming with history, we are transported into an era where architecture was celebrated as art. The long exposure technique used by FPG allows us to appreciate every intricate detail from lampposts casting their warm light onto city streets to towering skyscrapers reaching for greatness. This print is not just an image; it encapsulates a moment frozen in time when industry thrived and dreams soared high amidst Chicago's bustling metropolis.
