The Palace of Fine Arts showcased work by artists from around the world. The building itself was designed by Charles B. Atwood along with Daniel Burnham—a sky-lighted, oblong structure made up of a series of compartments that all intersected in a large rotunda surmounted by a massive dome. It was the only building with a perminant brick substructure and is still standing today— now the home of the Museum of Science and Industry.

The MacMonnies Fountain showcased steps of cascading waters flowing into the Grand Basin below. The sculpture was adorned by various figures such as Fate and Fame, all aboard a ship meant to represent forward progress. The painting shown here depicts fairgoers lighting their gondolas with paper lanterns, despite a practical electrically-powered boat having been invented 10 years prior. The Fountain’s proximity to the Electricity Building makes this contrast a bit ironic.
