EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a Singhalese woman during the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The image, taken by an American photographer from the 19th century, showcases the beauty and grace of this Singhalese woman as she participates in the grand celebrations at the world fair. Dressed in traditional attire, her vibrant clothing adorned with intricate patterns and colors, she stands out amidst a bustling crowd. Her radiant smile reflects her joyous spirit as she immerses herself in the festivities of this historic event. The Dream City, A Portfolio of Photographic Views of The Worlds Columbian Exposition (N D Thompson, 1893) features this stunning illustration that has now found its place within a private collection. Preserved over time, it serves as a testament to both the artistry of photography and cultural diversity showcased at such international exhibitions. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, we are transported back to an era when cultures converged on one platform to celebrate human achievement. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also reminds us of our shared history and interconnectedness across borders. Bridgeman Images presents this extraordinary piece from their collection without any commercial intent but rather with reverence for fine art and historical documentation.
