EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print of "The Great Exhibition" takes us back to the grandeur and innovation of the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the same era, showcases a remarkable collection of artistry and craftsmanship. In this bustling scene, we are transported to London's Crystal Palace, where the exhibition took place on May 24,1851. The image captures a mesmerizing array of sights within this architectural marvel. From the intricate tile pavement to the exquisite carton pierre ornamentation adorning every corner, it is evident that no detail was spared in creating this spectacle. The photograph reveals an opulent ceiling adorned with patent ornamented glass and brule parfum fixtures hanging delicately above visitors' heads. As our eyes wander further down, we notice a magnificent fountain surrounded by beautifully crafted floors made from parquet woodwork. Notably, craftsmen such as Messers Baily and J. W. Papworth contributed their expertise to bring these stunning designs to life. Additionally, artists like W. A. Papworth showcased their talents through various exhibits representing different cultures – including Russia and Asia – adding an international flair to this extraordinary event.
