EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of the Tribune Tower, published by the Chicago Rapid Transit Company in 1925, takes us back to a time when advertising and art seamlessly merged. The colour lithograph, created by Norman Erickson, showcases the grandeur of this iconic skyscraper that has become synonymous with the city of Chicago. Standing tall against a vibrant blue sky, the Tribune Tower dominates the urban landscape with its intricate architectural details. Its Gothic-inspired design is accentuated by delicate spires and ornate embellishments that exude elegance and sophistication. This image serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and artistic prowess. Commissioned by the Chicago Rapid Transit Company as part of their promotional efforts, this poster not only promotes their railway services but also celebrates an emblematic landmark within their cityscape. It captures a moment in history when public transportation played an integral role in shaping urban development. Now housed at London's Victoria & Albert Museum, this print continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to an era where artistry met advertisement – where creativity was harnessed to inspire awe and wonder. Through this photograph print from Fine Art Finder's collection provided by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate how art has always been intertwined with our daily lives – even in unexpected places like railway company advertisements.
