EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lantern slide depicts The Great Stadium at the Franco-British Exhibition, held at White City in London in 1908. The exhibition, a celebration of Anglo-French cultural and industrial cooperation, attracted millions of visitors from around the world. The Great Stadium was the centerpiece of the event, designed to host athletic competitions, including cycling, athletics, and motor racing. The image captures the grandeur and excitement of the era, with the Victorian and Edwardian influences evident in the architecture and fashion of the crowd. The stadium's impressive structure, with its high arches and open seating areas, is a testament to the engineering feats of the time. The crowd, dressed in their finest attire, adds to the sense of occasion, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere. The Franco-British Exhibition was an early precursor to the modern Olympic Games, with many of the events held there serving as a trial run for the first modern Olympic Games in Athens in 1896. The Great Stadium at White City played a significant role in the development of the Olympic movement, and this lantern slide offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of this important period in sporting and cultural history. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, from which this image is taken, is a valuable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of the early 20th century. This lantern slide, in particular, offers a unique and captivating perspective on the Franco-British Exhibition and the role it played in shaping the world we know today.
