title="World's fair">world's fair</a> held in <a href="/wiki/Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a> from May 5 to October 31, 1893, to celebrate the 400th anniversary of <a

href="#cite_note-WDL-1">[1]</a> The centerpiece of the Fair, held in <a href="/wiki/Jackson_Park_(Chicago)" title="Jackson Park (Chicago)">Jackson Park</a>, was a large water pool representing the voyage that Columbus took to the New World. Chicago won the right to host the fair over several competing cities, including <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>, <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington, D.C.</a>, and <a href="/wiki/St._Louis" title="St. Louis">St. Louis</a>. The exposition was an influential social and cultural event and had a profound effect on American <a href="/wiki/Architecture_of_the_United_States" class="mw-redirect" title="Architecture of the United States">architecture</a>, the arts, American industrial optimism, and Chicago's image. The layout of the Chicago Columbian Exposition was predominantly designed by <a href="/wiki/John_Wellborn_Root" title="John Wellborn Root">John Wellborn Root</a>, <a href="/wiki/Daniel_Burnham" title="Daniel Burnham">Daniel Burnham</a>, <a href="/wiki/Frederick_Law_Olmsted" title="Frederick Law Olmsted">Frederick Law Olmsted</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Charles_B._Atwood" title="Charles B. Atwood">Charles B. Atwood</a>.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-devil-3">[3]</a> It was the prototype of what Burnham and his colleagues thought a city should be. It was designed to follow <a href="/wiki/Beaux-Arts_architecture" title="Beaux-Arts architecture">Beaux-Arts</a> principles of design, namely <a href="/wiki/Neoclassical_architecture" title="Neoclassical architecture">neoclassical architecture</a> principles based on symmetry, balance, and splendor. The color of the material generally used to cover the buildings' façades, white <a href="/wiki/Staff_(building_material)" title="Staff (building material)">staff</a>, gave the fairgrounds its nickname, the White City. Many prominent architects designed its 14 "great buildings". Artists and musicians were featured in exhibits and many also made depictions and works of art inspired by the exposition. The exposition covered 690 acres (2.8 km2), featuring nearly 200 new but temporary buildings of predominantly neoclassical architecture, <a href="/wiki/Canal" title="Canal">canals</a> and <a href="/wiki/Lagoon" title="Lagoon">lagoons</a>, and people and cultures from 46 countries.<a href="#cite_note-WDL-1">[1]</a> More than 27 million people attended the exposition during its six-month run.

Dedication ceremonies for the fair were held on October 21, 1892, but the fairgrounds were not opened to the public until May 1, 1893. The fair continued until October 30, 1893. In addition to recognizing the 400th anniversary of the discovery of the New World, the fair served to show the world that Chicago had risen from the ashes of the <a href="/wiki/Great_Chicago_Fire" title="Great Chicago Fire">Great Chicago Fire</a>, which had destroyed much of the city in 1871.<a href="#cite_note-WDL-1">[1]</a> On October 9, 1893, the day designated as Chicago Day, the fair set a world record for outdoor event attendance, drawing 751,026 people.

World's fairs, such as London's 1851 <a href="/wiki/Crystal_Palace_Exhibition" class="mw-redirect" title="Crystal Palace Exhibition">Crystal Palace Exhibition</a>, had been successful in Europe as a way to bring together societies fragmented along class lines. The first American attempt at a <a href="/wiki/Centennial_Exposition" title="Centennial Exposition">world's fair in Philadelphia in 1876</a> drew crowds, but was a financial failure. Nonetheless, ideas about distinguishing the 400th anniversary of Columbus' landing started in the late 1880s. Civic leaders in St. Louis, New York City, Washington DC, and Chicago expressed interest in hosting a fair to generate profits, boost real estate values, and promote their cities. Congress was called on to decide the location. New York financiers <a href="/wiki/J._P._Morgan" title="J. P. Morgan">J. P. Morgan</a>, <a href="/wiki/Cornelius_Vanderbilt" title="Cornelius Vanderbilt">Cornelius Vanderbilt</a>, and <a href="/wiki/William_Waldorf_Astor" title="William Waldorf Astor">William Waldorf Astor</a>, among others, pledged $15 million to finance the fair if Congress awarded it to New York, while Chicagoans <a href="/wiki/Charles_T._Yerkes" class="mw-redirect" title="Charles T.

What finally persuaded Congress was Chicago banker <a href="/wiki/Lyman_Gage" class="mw-redirect" title="Lyman Gage">Lyman Gage</a>, who raised several million additional dollars in a 24-hour period, over and above New York's final offer.<a href="#cite_note-ec-9">[9]</a> Chicago representatives not only fought for the world's fair for monetary reasons, but also for reasons of practicality. In a Senate hearing held in January 1890, representative <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Barbour_Bryan" title="Thomas Barbour Bryan">Thomas Barbour Bryan</a> argued that the most important qualities for a world's fair were "abundant supplies of good air and pure water", "ample space, accommodations and transportation for all exhibits and visitors". He argued that New York had too many obstructions, and Chicago would be able to use large amounts of land around the city where there was "not a house to buy and not a rock to blast" and that it would be located so that "the artisan and the farmer and the shopkeeper and the man of humble means" would be able to easily access the fair. Bryan continued to say that the fair was of "vital interest" to the West, and that the West wanted the location to be Chicago. The city spokesmen would continue to stress the essentials of a successful exposition and that only Chicago was fit to fill these exposition requirements.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> The location of the fair was decided through several rounds of voting by the United States House of Representatives. The first ballot showed Chicago with a large lead over New York, St. Louis and Washington, D.C., but short of a majority. Chicago broke the 154-vote majority threshold on the eighth ballot, receiving 157 votes to New York's 107.<a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a> The exposition corporation and national exposition commission settled on <a href="/wiki/Jackson_Park_(Chicago)" title="Jackson Park (Chicago)">Jackson Park</a> and an area around it as the fair site. <a href="/wiki/Burnham_and_Root" title="Burnham and Root">Daniel H.

The White City inspired cities to focus on the beautification of the components of the city in which municipal government had control; streets, municipal art, public buildings, and public spaces. The designs of the City Beautiful Movement (closely tied with the municipal art movement) are identifiable by their classical architecture, plan symmetry, picturesque views, and axial plans, as well as their magnificent scale. Where the municipal art movement focused on beautifying one feature in a city, the City Beautiful movement began to make improvements on the scale of the district.

Since many of the other buildings at the fair were intended to be temporary, they were removed after the fair. The White City so impressed visitors (at least before air pollution began to darken the façades) that plans were considered to refinish the exteriors in marble or some other material. These plans were abandoned in July 1894, when much of the fair grounds was destroyed in a fire. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Gallery">Gallery</h3>[<a

The Chicago Historical Society held an exhibition to commemorate the fair. The Grand Illusions exhibition was centered around the idea that the Columbian Exposition was made up of a series of illusions. The commemorative exhibition contained partial reconstructions, a video detailing the fair, and a catalogue similar to the one sold at the World's Fair of 1893.<a href="#cite_note-128">[128]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Academic_views">Academic views</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=World%27s_Columbian_Exposition&action=edit&section=42" title="Edit section: Academic views">edit</a>]</div> <a href="/wiki/Henry_Adams" title="Henry Adams">Henry Adams</a> wrote in his 1907 <a href="/wiki/The_Education_of_Henry_Adams" title="The Education of Henry Adams">Education</a>: “The Exposition denied philosophy ...
