EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, created by M Jackson and published in the Illustrated London News in 1862, showcases the esteemed Commissioners of the International Exhibition of 1862. The image features four prominent figures of the time, seated in two rows. In the top row, we find the Duke of Buckingham, represented by the crest of Buckingham and Chandos, and Thomas Baring, a renowned businessman and banker. In the center, Earl Granville, also known as Granville George Leveson-Gower, 2nd Earl Granville, holds the position of Foreign Secretary. His elegant attire and regal posture exude authority and sophistication. The bottom row comprises Sir Charles Wentworth Dilke and Mr. Thomas Fairbairn. Sir Charles, a prominent figure in the artistic world, was a poet, author, and politician. Mr. Fairbairn, an entrepreneur and industrialist, was a key player in the steel industry. The allegorical figures in the background symbolize various aspects of the arts, industry, and commerce. The figure of Britannia, holding a trident and shield, represents Britain and her cultural and industrial might. The image is a testament to the international collaboration and the spirit of innovation that characterized the Great London Exposition of 1862. The photograph is a engraving, adding to its historical and artistic value. The Commissioners, with their diverse backgrounds and accomplishments, reflect the multifaceted nature of the exhibition and the era itself. This image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of 19th-century Britain and its cultural, artistic, and industrial achievements.
