EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white gravure print takes us back to the year 1864, when a revolutionary mode of transportation was introduced - the Pneumatic Railway for Passengers. The image showcases an intricate illustration that appeared in auction particulars of The Crystal Palace, Sydenham, which were set to be sold by auction on November 28th, 1911. The Pneumatic Railway for Passengers was a remarkable engineering feat of its time. It offered a glimpse into the future with its innovative use of compressed air to propel trains through underground tunnels. This engraving beautifully captures the excitement and anticipation surrounding this groundbreaking technology. As we delve into this historical artwork, we are transported to an era where progress and innovation were at the forefront. The Crystal Palace in Sydenham served as a fitting backdrop for such advancements, known as a hub for showcasing cutting-edge inventions and ideas. Although credited to Hudson & Kearns Ltd. , it is worth noting that many illustrations within these auction particulars were reprints from earlier sources. Nevertheless, this particular piece remains an important visual representation of how society embraced new forms of transport during the late 19th century.
