EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as The Prince of Wales inaugurates the Metropolitan Main-Drainage Works at Crossness. The engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, showcases this monumental event that took place on April 15,1865. The image portrays a scene filled with grandeur and importance. The Prince of Wales is seen graciously opening the main-drainage works while surrounded by civil engineers and distinguished guests. This gathering signifies not only the commencement of a groundbreaking project but also highlights the advancements made in London's infrastructure during this era. As we delve into the details of this print, we notice a luncheon taking place nearby where attendees are dining amidst their workshop surroundings. This juxtaposition between fine dining and construction work symbolizes both celebration and progress. The Metropolitan Main-Drainage Works at Crossness were crucial for improving water supplies and sanitation systems in London. Spearheaded by Mr Bazalgette (Joseph Bazalgette), these plans aimed to revolutionize public health standards within the city. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse into an important chapter in British history when urban development was prioritized alongside royal patronage. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece from their Fine Art Finder collection, allowing us to appreciate its historical significance for generations to come.
