EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Chicago in 1833" takes us back to the early days of this bustling city. Created by artist Raoul Varin around 1930, it offers a glimpse into the past with its vivid colors and intricate details. The image showcases a river scene, highlighting the importance of water transport during that era. In the foreground, we see a native American paddling a canoe on the calm waters, symbolizing the rich indigenous history of this land. Behind him lies an emerging settlement characterized by modest buildings and houses that dot the landscape. These structures represent Chicago's humble beginnings as it transformed from a small trading post to one of America's largest cities. The print captures both the natural beauty and human progress intertwined within Chicago's geography. It serves as a reminder of how far this metropolis has come since its establishment in Illinois. The artist skillfully portrays not only historical accuracy but also evokes nostalgia for simpler times. Originally printed by Arthur Ackermann & Sons and featured in The Studio Volume 106 in London in 1933, this artwork stands as a testament to Varin's talent and dedication to preserving history through his craft. As we admire this piece today, let us appreciate Chicago's remarkable growth while honoring its roots and acknowledging those who came before us on this journey called America.
