EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the allure and intrigue of Madame Tussauds Waxwork Museum in London during the late 19th century. The image, taken in 1884, showcases several views of the museum shortly after it moved to its new premises on Marylebone Road. In the center of the print, visitors can see the entrance to the museum, where they would begin their journey into a world of historical figures and famous personalities. The number 7 is prominently displayed above the entrance, indicating the importance of this cultural institution. Moving clockwise from the top left, the first view reveals the grandeur of The Hall of Kings. With its ornate columns and intricate detailing, it was a fitting setting for the lifelike wax figures of monarchs and rulers from various eras. The Entrance Hall and Staircase are depicted next, with their impressive chandeliers and ornate decorations. The staircase, with its elegant banisters, would have provided a dramatic entrance for visitors as they made their way to the different exhibits. The Napoleon Salon is shown in the third view, a room dedicated to the famous French emperor. The detailed wax figure of Napoleon, dressed in military regalia, would have been a sight to behold for visitors. Finally, the exterior of Madame Tussauds is depicted, with its imposing facade and the bustling crowds outside. The exterior of the museum, with its Marylebone Road address, would have been a familiar sight to Londoners and tourists alike. This engraving offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when Madame Tussauds was a must-visit attraction for anyone traveling to London. The historical significance of the museum, combined with the intricacy and realism of the wax figures, made it a beloved institution that continues to captivate visitors to this day.
