This intricate cast-iron grille, designed by the famed architectural firm Adler & Sullivan, originally adorned the elevator enclosure of the Chicago Stock Exchange Building. Crafted in 1893-1894, it exemplifies the firm's signature Chicago School style, with its bold geometric forms and intricate ornamentation. Now housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, the grille is a testament to Sullivan's innovative use of materials and his dedication to crafting visually striking details that enhanced the functionality of buildings.
