EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the grandeur of the Chicago World's Fair in 1893. The image captures a mesmerizing performance unfolding on stage at the Egyptian Theatre, transporting viewers to an era filled with wonder and excitement. The Egyptian Theatre was one of the many architectural marvels showcased during this iconic event, known as the World's Columbian Exposition. As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we can almost feel ourselves being transported to that momentous occasion. The performers on stage are bathed in dramatic lighting, their elaborate costumes adding an air of mystique to the scene. This snapshot offers a glimpse into a time when entertainment was truly enchanting and theatrical productions were celebrated for their artistry. This particular image is part of "The Magic City" an extraordinary portfolio edited by J. W. Buel that documented various aspects of the Great World's Fair. It serves as a testament to both the artistic vision behind these performances and their significance within history. As we celebrate this anniversary and reflect upon our past, let us be reminded of how exhibitions like these have shaped our world today. This print encapsulates not only a birthday party for Chicago but also marks Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492 – a pivotal moment in history forever etched within our collective memory.
