EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures a breathtaking view looking down on the Paris Exhibition of 1889 from the dome, with the French exhibits filling one-half of the entire space. The Exposition Universelle, as it was formally known, was a world's fair held in Paris to celebrate the centennial of the French Revolution. The remaining exhibition space was divided among the other nations of the world, showcasing their latest technological and artistic achievements. France took great pride in hosting the event and spared no expense in constructing the iconic Eiffel Tower as the centerpiece of the exhibition. The French exhibits were the most extensive, featuring a diverse range of industries, from textiles and agriculture to engineering and transportation. Despite Germany's absence as a major exhibitor, there were a few German paintings being displayed. Germany was embroiled in political tensions with France at the time, which led to its decision not to participate. The absence of Germany, however, did not diminish the international significance of the exhibition. The photograph captures the grandeur and scale of the event, with the intricate details of the buildings and structures visible from this unique vantage point. The Paris Exhibition of 1889 was a testament to human ingenuity and creativity, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the marvels that were on display.
