EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "Exhibition extraordinary" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a fascinating glimpse into a horticultural exhibition. The print showcases the Great Room of the Horticultural Society, adorned with portraits of officials and filled with an eclectic mix of spectators. The scene is brimming with humour and oddities as men and women alike marvel at the array of plants on display. A satirical twist is added through caricatures that playfully poke fun at these curious visitors. This satirical drawing serves as scathing satire, highlighting both the absurdity and charm found within such exhibitions. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings this world exhibition to life. Each fruit, plant, and exhibit is meticulously depicted in this engraved masterpiece. It invites viewers to explore every corner of this extraordinary event where nature meets human curiosity. As we delve deeper into this engraving by Bridgeman Images from their private collection, it becomes evident that it captures not only an exhibition but also a moment in time when society's fascination with horticulture was at its peak. Through this lens, we gain insight into how people engaged with nature during that era while simultaneously being entertained by whimsical cartoons. This remarkable print reminds us that even centuries later, exhibitions continue to captivate our imagination – offering glimpses into worlds both familiar and fantastical.
