The exhibition was a momentous world fair that showcased the marvels of industry, art, and culture from countries far and wide. The image captures the bustling atmosphere outside one of the magnificent buildings designed by Captain Francis Fowke. With its domed roof towering above, it stands as a testament to Victorian architecture at its finest.

In this snapshot frozen in time, men and women dressed in their finest attire fill the streets with excitement and curiosity.
