EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from "The Architect's, Surveyors, and Engineers Compendium 1892" an engraving by the English School in the 19th century. The image is part of a private collection and captures the essence of Victorian engineering excellence. The page features intricate details highlighting various aspects of construction, including sensitiveness, reliability, equipment, and general excellence of design. It delves into diverse topics such as railways, working hoists, gas engines based on the Otto principle governing sewage works. It also explores high economy driving dynamos for electric lighting and small waterworks with pumping machinery. With its focus on both large-scale projects like mansions and public institutions as well as smaller endeavors like water tanks or fireproof constructions, this compendium offers a comprehensive overview of engineering practices during that era. Noteworthy are references to Tangyes Limited - an esteemed company known for their expertise in parts manufacturing - along with mentions of cities worldwide where their work has left an indelible mark: London, Glasgow, Sydney, Manchester, Bilbao in Spain's Basque Country; Genoa in Italy; Newcastle; Johannesburg; Melbourne; among others. This print not only highlights the technical prowess but also emphasizes the simplicity of construction methods employed during this period. Its historical significance lies in capturing a snapshot of architectural ingenuity that continues to inspire engineers today.
