Annex: Art Building, World's Columbian Exhibition, Chicago IL, 1894. Charles B. Atwood

An Original Gelatine Print of the Portico of Annex of the Art Building, World's Columbian Exhibition in Chicago, Illinois. EARLY PICTURE. Charles B. Atwood, Architect. From the American Architect and Building News, June 9, 1894.

This picture is extremely hard to find. The American Architect and Building News had a very small circulation during this time and these original photogravures only appeared in a very limited number of issues that were distributed to a few prominent architects. This is from the architect Bruce Price's collection. It measures 12.75 by 8.5 inches. Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture). The whole picture measures approximately 16 by 12 inches (with border). Extraordinary detail in this early photographic print. Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with browning around the edges and light crinkling.
