EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the serene beauty of the North Lagoon from the Horticultural Building during the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The image, taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, showcases a moment frozen in time at this grand celebration. The scene is filled with an air of excitement and wonder as visitors stroll along the lagoon's edge, taking in the sights and sounds of this magnificent event. The Horticultural Building stands proudly in the background, its intricate architecture adding to the splendor of the occasion. As we gaze upon this print from a private collection, we are transported back to a time when photography was still emerging as an art form. The monochromatic tones lend a timeless quality to this snapshot of history, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic composition and historical significance. This photograph originally appeared as an illustration for "The Dream City" a portfolio showcasing photographic views of The World's Columbian Exposition. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and creativity while also capturing our collective fascination with progress and innovation. Intriguingly nostalgic yet undeniably beautiful, this print invites us to step into another era - one filled with marvels that continue to captivate our imaginations today.
