EDITORS COMMENTS
The Chrysler Building at the Century of Progress International Exposition, held in Chicago in 1933, marked the city's centennial and celebrated technological innovation. This image showcases the Chrysler Building as one of the fair's main attractions. The structure does not represent the automobile manufacturing company, but rather showcases the intricacies of a Chrysler automobile's construction. Visitors were able to observe the testing of materials used and the completion of the car, reflecting the spirit of technological advancement that defined the fair. The Chrysler Building, an iconic Art Deco structure, stood proudly amidst the vibrant atmosphere of the World's Fair. The 1930s, known as the Thirties, were a time of great change and progress, and the Chrysler Building embodied this era's spirit of modernity and innovation. The illuminations during nighttime hours, with floodlights casting an ethereal glow on the building, added to its allure. This photograph captures the essence of the Chrysler Building at the Century of Progress International Exposition, a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of the time.
