Sunbathers lounge beneath bright umbrellas along a crowded Lake Michigan beach, while the city's skyscrapers shimmer on the horizon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe railroad commissioned the design to promote seasonal excursions to Chicago, whose sandy shoreline drew eager visitors during the 1920s. Marketed as a breezy escape from inland heat, the waterfront became a celebrated retreat for Midwestern families and weekend day-trippers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrained in architecture at the University of Illinois, Paul Proehl brought a precise eye for structure and light to his commercial work. His Chicago series for the line captured the buoyant mood of the interwar boom, when leisure travel and lakeside recreation flourished across America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eToday this artwork stands as a testament to the golden age of rail travel and offers a window into the carefree spirit of the Roaring Twenties. With its sunny palette and cheerful detail, it makes a prized addition to a den, sunroom, or family room.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Historic Prints","offers":[{"title":"8x12 Inch","offer_id":68101792104637,"sku":"ENTP0081_0812P","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x17 Inch","offer_id":68101792137405,"sku":"ENTP0081_1117P","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16x24 Inch","offer_id":68101792170173,"sku":"ENTP0081_1624P","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/5459\/3725\/files\/17LOPmoBgPVoZ6m9HzhtAOFatZIxiBnME_w1000.jpg?v=1793423511","url":"https:\/\/historicprints.com\/es\/products\/1925-chicago-lakefront-beach-summer-travel-poster","provider":"Historic Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
