Elevate your space with our Chicago, Illinois Canvas Art

Chicago might be the best city in America for architecture lovers, and that shows in this collection. Alongside the skyline, you will find the buildings Chicagoans give directions by, the lakefront in every season, and graphic pieces built from the city’s maps and train lines.

Architecture

Chicago Architecture and Landmarks shows the Wrigley Building’s white terra cotta glowing over the Chicago River at golden hour. Tribune Tower Gothic Majesty paints the 1925 tower like a cathedral under a pale moon, and Marina City Towers Panorama centers the famous corncob towers on the river at dusk. Chicago Historic Water Tower honors the limestone landmark that survived the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, and Lions at the Art Institute portrays one of the bronze lions that have guarded Michigan Avenue since 1894.

The lakefront

Chicago Lake Shore Drive catches the skyline under a cotton-candy sky, Buckingham Fountain at Dusk lights the fountain in orange and purple, and Navy Pier Fireworks Reflections captures the Fourth of July over the water. Chicago Harbor Aerial View follows the curve of the shoreline from above.

Maps, lines and graphics

For a more graphic look, CTA Train Lines Pop Art turns the ’L’ into blocks of blue, orange and red, Route 66 Begins Here marks the start of America’s most famous highway in downtown Chicago, and Chicago Retro Travel Poster breaks the skyline into vintage color blocks. Nine Neighborhoods Grid gathers nine views of the city in one frame.

Moody Chicago

Not every Chicago day is sunny, and some of our favorite pieces embrace it. Chicago Rainy Streets in Monochrome paints wet streets in cool greys lit by amber traffic signals, and Chicago Winter Fog Over the City lets the towers disappear into a January sky.

Choosing your Chicago piece

  • Modern loft or brick walls: the monochrome street scene or the Tribune Tower.
  • Kid’s room or home office: the CTA map and Route 66 bring color and a story.
  • Living room: a wide lakefront or river scene at 48×32 inches above the sofa.
