Artist's Description
Colorized photo from 1943, Jan
Original title: Union Station concourse
Photographer: Jack Delano
Location: 225 South Canal Street Chicago, IL
This is Union Station in Chicago in 1943, during the war, so they still have all that propaganda up. It stands 60ft tall, if you look carefully you will see aircraft on the ceiling. They are multiple layers deep, ranging from 12" wide all the way up to 48" wide. In total there were 4500 planes, starting on this side of the station (representing American), and the other side, representing Germany.
The American side featured a large sign reading: For Us... Bonds and on the enemies side it read: For Them... Bombs. Flanking both sides are a number of flags, I assume were all fighting in the war, otherwise it adds color to a drab station.
You can see quite a bit of stuff going on below. They have an entire bookstore down there. I can't really imagine wanting to get a novel before getting onto the train. But tho...
About Mike Savad
My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
