This view may be by Delamotte who took two earlier series of photographs of the Crystal Palace at Sydenham. It is hand coloured, and reproduces the decorative scheme for the Palace devised by Owen Jones. Probably photographed 1854-66 by Philip Henry Delamotte

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and magnificence of the Crystal Palace in Sydenham, London. The image showcases the interior of the vast nave, an awe-inspiring space that stretches over three quarters of a mile long and soars to heights exceeding 100 feet. The photographer, Philip Henry Delamotte, expertly captured this architectural marvel during its heyday between 1854 and 1866. Delamotte's lens immortalizes not only the impressive scale but also the intricate details within this glass Victorian structure. The photograph highlights the delicate ironwork arches that support the immense weight of the palace. What sets this particular print apart is its hand-colored nature, bringing to life Owen Jones' visionary decorative scheme for the Crystal Palace. Every vibrant hue meticulously applied enhances both beauty and authenticity. Delamotte's expertise shines through as he masterfully frames this shot, showcasing both technical precision and artistic flair. This photograph serves as a testament to his skill in capturing historical landmarks with such clarity that they transcend time. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are transported back to an era when innovation met elegance in architecture. It reminds us of our rich heritage and encourages us to appreciate these magnificent structures that have shaped our cities throughout history.
