EDITORS COMMENTS
CHICAGO: MONTAUK BLOCK. Designed by Burnham and Root, 1881-1882. Contemporary wood engraving captures the essence of late 19th-century American city life on a bustling street in Chicago. The print showcases the architectural marvel that is the Montauk Block, a masterpiece created by renowned architects Daniel Burnham and John Wellborn Root. The image transports us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages were the primary mode of transportation, as elegant carriages traverse the cobblestone streets. The flag proudly waving atop one of the buildings adds a touch of patriotism to this vibrant scene. The Montauk Block itself stands tall and majestic amidst its surroundings, showcasing intricate architectural details that are characteristic of Burnham and Root's style. This North Side building serves as a testament to their innovative design principles that would later shape Chicago's skyline. This contemporary wood engraving beautifully captures not only the physical structure but also the energy and spirit of this era in American history. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the artistry involved in creating such an exquisite piece of architecture and glimpse into daily life during this transformative period for Chicago.
