EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Washington Street Looking East Wells Street" captures a moment frozen in time in the bustling city of Chicago, Illinois. Taken by George N. Barnard, an American photographer renowned for his documentation of the Civil War and urban landscapes, this image showcases his exceptional talent. The photograph was captured in 1871, just before one of the most devastating events in Chicago's history - the Great Fire that ravaged the city later that year. It provides us with a glimpse into what life was like on Washington Street during those vibrant times. As we peer into this black and white albumen silver print from 1872, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details within each building lining both sides of Washington Street. The architecture reflects a blend of styles prevalent at that time - elegant facades adorned with ornate decorations and grand entrances. The street itself is teeming with activity; horse-drawn carriages traverse its cobblestone surface while pedestrians bustle along the sidewalks. One can almost hear the echoes of conversations and laughter drifting through the air as people go about their daily routines. This historic photograph serves as a poignant reminder not only of Chicago's rich past but also of Barnard's remarkable ability to capture moments that transcend time. It allows us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone yet forever preserved through his lens.
