EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Chicago World's Fair of 1893, specifically showcasing "The Casino". The image captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to witness the grandeur and excitement that surrounded this iconic event. As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are transported to an era where innovation and progress were celebrated. The Chicago World's Fair was a monumental exhibition that showcased the achievements of nations from around the globe. It symbolized not only the anniversary of Columbus' arrival in the New World in 1492 but also marked a significant milestone in American history. "The Casino" depicted here was not your typical gambling hall; it represented much more than just games of chance. This magnificent structure served as a hub for entertainment, culture, and social gatherings during the fair. Exhibitors from all over came together under its roof to showcase their inventions, artwork, and ideas. This print is part of "The Magic City" an extensive portfolio edited by J. W. Buel that captured original photographic views of this great world's fair. Preserved within private collections today, these images offer us glimpses into a pivotal moment in history when Chicago became synonymous with progress and ingenuity. Through this remarkable piece of artistry by an anonymous American photographer from the 19th century, we can appreciate both the beauty and significance behind one of America's most renowned exhibitions – forever etched into our collective memory as an emblematic celebration of human achievement.
