The International Exhibition: decoration, in the Furniture Court, by John G. Crace... 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: decoration, in the Furniture Court, by John G. Crace - from a photograph by the London Stereoscopic Company, 1862. This decorative arrangement is formed into three portions (of which the central is the widest) by four pilasters, which bear the richest portion of the decoration; the upper part of the central section is occupied by an arch filled with ornamental griffins, and a shield bearing the initials of its producer, and the upper portions of the side compartments with panels, in the centre of which arc pictorial medallions. In style this decoration is French Renaissance...The ornament of the pilasters is in the richest colours, and is wrought upon a toothed gold ground. In the central columns boys are introduced, and in the side pilasters urns of flowers. The capitals are gold, and the bases imitations of rich marbles and bronze. This decoration is, unquestionably, gorgeous, yet it is not obtrusive. It is harmonious and well composed, and stands rather with the aspect of conscious worth than gaudy showiness'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The International Exhibition: decoration, in the Furniture Court, by John G. Crace," showcases an exquisite decorative arrangement from the 1862 International Exhibition, as captured by the London Stereoscopic Company. The decoration is located in the Furniture Court, and was designed by the renowned English architect and decorator, John G. Crace. The decorative scheme is divided into three sections, with the central one being the widest. Each section is supported by four pilasters, which bear the most elaborate decoration. The upper part of the central section features an arch filled with ornamental griffins and a shield bearing the initials of its producer. The upper portions of the side compartments are adorned with panels, each containing a pictorial medallion. The style of this decoration is reminiscent of the French Renaissance, with the ornamentation in the richest colors wrought upon a toothed gold ground. Boys are depicted in the central columns, and urns of flowers are featured in the side pilasters. The capitals are gold, and the bases are imitations of rich marbles and bronze. Despite its grandeur, this decoration is not ostentatious. It is harmonious and well-composed, exuding a sense of conscious worth rather than gaudy showiness. The photograph offers a glimpse into the opulence and artistic sophistication of the International Exhibition, leaving us in awe of the intricate details and the masterful craftsmanship of John G. Crace.
