EDITORS COMMENTS
The Glasgow International Exhibition (engraving) captures the grandeur and opulence of one of Scotland's most significant cultural events in the late 19th century. This remarkable print, created by Frank Watkins, takes us back to May 1888 when The Illustrated London News first published this illustration. The image showcases the stunning interiors of the exhibition, revealing a world of architectural marvels and artistic splendor. The dome rises majestically above the central hall, casting a soft glow on the bustling crowds below. Every corner is adorned with intricate details that speak volumes about Victorian craftsmanship. One cannot help but be captivated by the triumphal arch that stands proudly at the entrance, welcoming visitors from near and far. It symbolizes not only Scotland's rich history but also its aspirations for a bright future. In particular, attention is drawn to the royal reception room – an exquisite space fit for dignitaries and esteemed guests. Its lavish decor reflects both elegance and sophistication, leaving no doubt as to why it was chosen as a venue for important gatherings during this momentous event. This engraving serves as a testament to Glasgow's prominence as a hub of culture and innovation during that era. It transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand how artistry merged seamlessly with architecture within these hallowed walls.
