EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1900, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of the Art Institute of Chicago. Standing tall in the heart of Chicago, Illinois, this architectural marvel was constructed in 1893 and continues to be an iconic landmark today. The photograph showcases the exterior facade of the museum, capturing its impressive colonnade adorned with majestic columns. The building's pediment stands proudly above Michigan Avenue, while Grant Park provides a picturesque backdrop for this cultural gem. Intriguingly, this image also transports us to a time when Chicago was still evolving as a city. The streets are bustling with early 20th-century activity - horse-drawn carriages traverse North Michigan Avenue as pedestrians stroll along its sidewalks. One cannot help but notice two prominent features that have become synonymous with the Art Institute: two regal lion statues guarding its entrance. These magnificent creatures add an air of majesty and symbolism to this already awe-inspiring scene. As we admire this snapshot from over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of how art transcends time and connects generations. It is through photographs like these that we can appreciate not only the beauty captured within them but also gain insight into our shared history and heritage.
