Chicago Worlds Fair - Convent of La Rabida
Chicago Worlds Fair - Convent of La Rabida - Square buildings, small windows. Part of Box 282 Boswell Collection - Chicago Exposition.. The Covent of La Rabida - The Exposition of 1893 gained over all other Worlds Fairs because of its commemoration of Columbus, a worlds hero. No spirit of national pride was hurt, and several European peoples were flattered by the extraordinary demonstration at Chicago. Chief among the honors paid to Columbus was the erection at Jackson Park of a reproduction of the Convent of La Rabida, at Palos, Spain, in which Columbus took refuge, and where he matured his plans of sailing due westward into the Ocean Sea. Date: 1893
