EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Glasgow Exhibition, visited by the Queen" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the grandeur and excitement of the Glasgow Exhibition held in 1888. The exhibition grounds come alive with bustling activity as visitors explore various displays and marvel at cutting-edge manufacturing technologies. In the foreground, we see a grooving machine and rounding machine showcasing innovative advancements in industry. The architecture of Blythswood House stands tall amidst the vibrant scene, adding a touch of elegance to this bustling atmosphere. A bass drum catches our attention, symbolizing lively entertainment that accompanied these exhibitions. Notably, Queen Victoria herself graced this event with her presence. Her visit is depicted here as she strolls through the exhibition grounds accompanied by her entourage. This royal encounter adds prestige to an already remarkable occasion. As we delve deeper into this intricate engraving, glimpses of other fascinating exhibits emerge – from pencil making demonstrations to historical artifacts like shakos worn during the Battle of Waterloo. Each element tells its own story within this visual tapestry celebrating Scotland's rich heritage and technological progress. Preserved within private collections for years, this print now allows us to relive a pivotal moment when art met innovation on Scottish soil.
