EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La Salle Street Looking North Monroe Street" by George N. Barnard takes us back to the bustling city of Chicago in 1871. The image, captured on an albumen silver print, showcases the remarkable talent and vision of this American photographer. As we gaze into the photograph, our eyes are drawn down La Salle Street, stretching out before us like a pathway to the future. The street is alive with activity - horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians fill the thoroughfare, while towering buildings line both sides. It's a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to witness Chicago's rapid growth during this era. The negative for this print was taken just before one of history's most devastating events - the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. This makes Barnard's work even more significant as it captures a moment right before tragedy struck. The composition is masterful; Barnard expertly frames the scene from Monroe Street, capturing not only the architectural grandeur but also conveying a sense of energy and progress that defined Chicago at that time. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a window into history, transporting us back to an era when cities were rapidly evolving and dreams were being built sky-high. It reminds us of how far we have come while honoring those who laid the foundation for modern-day Chicago.
