Art in the Gallery of the 1893 World's Fair by Charles Kurtz Pdf
Just because you missed the World's Fair of 1893 doesn't mean that you have to miss celebrating the artwork that was on display in the Palace of Fine Arts. The World's Fair of 1893 enthralled millions of 19th-century visitors with electricity, technology, and the Midway Plaisance. It also featured a fantastic collection of art from celebrated painters and sculptors around the world. Originally published in 1893, this rare guide to the artworks featured at the World's Columbian Exposition was prepared with the sanction and under the direct supervision of the Art Department and Charles M.
