The present lot shows the legendary 'Sky Ride', built especially for the World Fair of Chicago in 1933-34. It was the largest and most prominent structure at the World Fair and had a capacity to transport 5,000 people an hour. In the upper right corner of this painting we can also see a zeppelin. This was the German built Graf Zeppelin which circled lake Michigan during the fair.
