Reclamebord in een veld tijdens de wereldtentoonstelling in St. Louis (Louisiana Purchase Exposition), 1904 1904 - 1905

This photograph by Jan Schüller, taken during the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis, captures a simple yet evocative scene: a billboard, likely advertising an attraction at the World's Fair, stands in a field. The image is a snapshot of a bygone era, highlighting the importance of advertising in a time of rapid industrialization and the burgeoning use of photography as a form of documentation. The grainy, sepia tones of the photograph add to its historical feel and evoke a sense of nostalgia for the early 20th century.
