EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Views in the Great Exhibition" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into one of London's most iconic events. The image showcases an array of scenes from the renowned exhibition that took place in 1851. In this print, we are transported to a bustling hall filled with people admiring various displays. The intricate details captured by the English School artist allow us to appreciate the grandeur of this historic event. From every corner, visitors can be seen marveling at exquisite sculptures and statues showcased throughout. One particular section catches our attention - it is the French department, adorned with elegant artwork and delicate sculptures that emanate grace and beauty. The mourners nearby add a touch of solemnity amidst all the excitement. As we explore further into this visual masterpiece, our eyes are drawn towards a serene lough surrounded by lush greenery. It provides a momentary respite for weary attendees seeking solace amidst their exploration. The Illustrated London News published this illustration on August 16th, 1851, allowing readers to experience vicariously what they might have missed or reminisce about their own visit to this extraordinary exhibition. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can still admire these historical prints today without any commercial use distractions – simply appreciating them as windows into another time and place.
