EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the bustling intersection of Chamber Commerce corner La Salle and Washington Streets in Chicago, Illinois. Taken by renowned American photographer George N. Barnard in 1871, just a year before the devastating Great Chicago Fire, this image offers a glimpse into the city's vibrant past. The photograph showcases the grandeur of the Chamber of Commerce building standing proudly at the corner, its architectural beauty commanding attention amidst a sea of horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians going about their daily lives. The streets are alive with energy as people navigate through the busy thoroughfare, creating an atmosphere that is both chaotic and enchanting. Barnard's expert use of albumen silver print brings out exquisite details in this historical snapshot. The sharpness and clarity allow us to appreciate not only the intricate architecture but also capture glimpses into everyday life during this era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from 1872, it serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time while still retaining their unique character. This print transports us back to a moment frozen in history when Chicago was on the cusp of transformation - ready to rise from its ashes and become one of America's greatest metropolises.
