EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the International Exhibition of 1862, showcasing a remarkable collection of 86 stereographic views. The exhibition, held in London, England, was a grand celebration of art and culture from around the world. One particular image that stands out is "Tinted Venus" by J. Gibson, R. A. , a renowned British sculptor. This hand-coloured sculpture depicts the goddess Venus in all her ethereal beauty. The delicate hues applied to this masterpiece bring it to life, adding depth and vibrancy to its already exquisite form. The photograph itself is an impressive example of 19th-century photography techniques. An albumen silver print created from glass negatives with applied color showcases the skill and craftsmanship involved in capturing such intricate details. The architectural wonders showcased throughout these images transport us back in time to an era when grandeur and opulence were at their peak. From Greek-inspired structures to religious sculptures, each piece tells a story of artistic brilliance and cultural heritage. William England's keen eye for composition allows us to experience this historic event through his lens. As we admire these photographs today at the Metropolitan Museum of Art or any other gallery where they are displayed, we can't help but marvel at how they have preserved not only moments frozen in time but also our collective human history.
