EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historic print captures the essence of the Great Texas State Fair Poster from 1894. The colour lithograph showcases an array of captivating elements that transport us back to a time when agriculture, entertainment, and community came together in Dallas, Texas. Standing tall in the center is a grand stadium, bustling with spectators eagerly awaiting the start of various events. Surrounding it are sprawling fields filled with cattle, horses, and other farm animals - a testament to the agricultural significance of this fair. The liveliness of these creatures adds an element of excitement and energy to the scene. The poster also highlights different forms of entertainment available at the fair. A horse-drawn gig races across one corner while another section features a thrilling derby race where powerful horses gallop towards victory. These spectacles were undoubtedly crowd favorites during those times. As we delve into this image, we can't help but appreciate its historical value as it represents not only an exhibition but also serves as a window into life in late 19th-century America. It reminds us how fairs like these brought people together from all walks of life to celebrate their shared interests and passions. Preserved by Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to relive moments from our past while appreciating the rich cultural heritage that continues to shape our present-day state fairs around the world.
