EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Chicago in 1896. Captured by renowned photographers Underwood & Underwood, this stereoscopic card offers a detailed glimpse into the daily life of America's vibrant city during the 19th century. The scene is alive with activity as people fill the sidewalks, roads, and carriages that traverse the street. Horse-drawn vehicles gracefully make their way through the crowded thoroughfare, while pedestrians navigate their paths amidst a sea of fellow citizens. The sun blinds and awnings provide relief from the bright sunlight, casting shadows on both buildings and passersby. Chicago's distinctive architecture lines either side of this busy lane, showcasing its unique blend of styles from that era. From rambling country lanes to grand avenues, this street embodies the essence of urban life in Illinois at that time. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to a different era - an era where transportation relied on horsepower rather than engines and where every corner held stories waiting to be discovered. This photograph serves as a testament to our shared history and reminds us how far we have come since those days. Thanks to The Print Collector for preserving such valuable pieces of our past through their collection. Let us cherish these glimpses into yesteryears as they offer insights into our roots and shape our understanding of progress over time.
