Progress of the International Exhibition Building: ornamentation of roof and railing of... 1862. Creator: Unknown
Progress of the International Exhibition Building: ornamentation of roof and railing of gallery, 1862. Illustration of...that which we have more than once described in detail - namely, the decoration of the roof, with its colouring and gilding, and its somewhat minute, but on the whole pretty and not ineffective, ornamentation. A section of the railing of the galleries will be seen at the foot of the Engraving, and it shows what we conceive to be the neatest part of the decoration of the building, the emblematic design and the border being in good keeping, and the touches of gilding tastefully laid on'. The International Exhibition of 1862 was a world's fair held from 1 May to 1 November 1862 in South Kensington, London. The site now houses museums including the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Progress of the International Exhibition Building, specifically focusing on the intricate ornamentation of its roof and railing of the galleries during the 1862 World's Fair held in South Kensington, London. The International Exhibition of 1862 was a significant cultural event that showcased the latest advancements in art, science, and industry from around the world. The building, now home to museums such as the Natural History Museum and the Science Museum, was a marvel of 19th-century architecture. The print reveals the decorative details of the roof, which were described in the Illustrated London News as having "colouring and gilding, and its somewhat minute, but on the whole pretty and not ineffective, ornamentation." A section of the railing at the foot of the engraving adds to the overall appeal, with its emblematic design and border in good keeping. The building's architectural features, including arches, columns, and girders, are all on display, with a focus on the cast iron and wrought iron elements. The intricate details of the arches and archways are particularly noteworthy, as are the columns and pillars that support the weight of the structure. The use of iron and steel in the construction of the building was a testament to the industrial prowess of the time. This print offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the grandeur and innovation of the Great London Exposition of 1862. The intricate ornamentation and decorative details of the building continue to captivate viewers, making this an essential addition to any collection of historical architectural prints.
