Happy History Monday! We recently discovered this full page of advertisements for artists and businesses within the Fine Arts Building, from the Chicago Tribune in 1906. What a treasure trove of art and creativity from over a century ago! A quote at the bottom of the page (cut off in this photo) reads: "As is well known, the Fine Arts Building is the artistic center of all Chicago. Among its tenants may be found the leading artists, musicians, and art craft workers of the city. An eastern visitor who recently made a tour of the building, characterized it as the most interesting and wonderful building in the world, comprising what is found in no other building, practically all of the art interests of a city." #fineartsbuildingchicago #fineartsbuilding #historicbuildings #historyinphotos #historicbuilding #chicagoartiststudios #ChicagoHistory #chicagotribune #chicagoart #chicagoartist #chicagoartists
