Chicago hosted the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, a world's fair commemorating the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the New World. Artists from the United States and 19 foreign countries exhibited at the Exposition. A complete list of the artists and works exhibited in the Palace of Fine Arts can be found here:

The Art Department's focus was on modern American painting, works painted in the 17 years since the 1876 Centennial Exposition. Hundreds of American painters submitted works, and more than 1,000 paintings in oil and more than 200 in watercolor were selected for exhibition in the Palace of Fine Arts. Additional works—not in competition for medals—were exhibited in other Exposition buildings, including the Woman's Building and individual state buildings.

The tradition of the Paris Salon was to award a single gold medal (first place), a couple silver medals (second place), several bronze medals (third place), and numerous honorable mentions (fourth place) in each medium (oils, watercolor, sculpture, etc.). Instead of this tiered system with medals awarded for individual paintings, Exposition judges awarded one level of medals that was for an artist's whole exhibit. Fifty-seven American painters received medals "for excellence" for works in oil, and 11 for works in watercolor.

Author Henry Davenport Northrop made a key observation:

The American artists are practically of three classes—those who have studied entirely in this country; those who have studied abroad, but have returned to America and partly shaken off the foreign influence; and those who have remained abroad, painting very much like the artists of the country in which they live.

The Exposition closed at the end of October 1893. Many of its buildings were destroyed in a July 1894 fire that swept through the vacant fairgrounds.

Notes

  1. Art juries had been directed to select a maximum of 3 works per artist, but exceptions were made for prominent artists—George Inness exhibited 15 paintings, Winslow Homer and D. W. Tryon each exhibited 14, Kenyon Cox and Robert Vonnoh each exhibited 13, Thomas Eakins exhibited 10 (plus another in the Pennsylvania State Building).
  2. This medals system was unpopular with artists, who feared that "painters and sculptors whose work barely reached the mark" would receive "exactly the same distinction as artists who show masterpieces". The next American world's fair—the 1901 Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York—returned to gold, silver and bronze medals and honorable mentions, but awarded them for an artist's whole exhibit.
  3. The initial catalogue listed the painters alphabetically, but their works could be spread throughout more than a dozen rooms. The revised catalogue both listed the painters alphabetically and listed the paintings room-by-room and wall-by-wall.
  4. "A PRIZE PHILADELPHIAN. Only one prize was offered this year by the Prize Fund Exhibition at the American Art Galleries, consisting of $2,500. It has been awarded to H. R. Poore of Philadelphia for his large nocturne, 'The Night of the Nativity'."—The New York Times, May 12, 1889.
  5. "In Harper's Weekly I found an illustration by Reinhart, by far the best I've seen by him up to now, Washed Ashore. A body has been washed up, a man is kneeling beside it to see who it is, a few fishermen and women give information about the shipwreck victim to a gendarme. So it looks somewhat like Victim of a Shipwreck that you have, but the drawing by R. has something of Régamey, for example. It's a very fine print." — Vincent van Gogh.
