EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Mr Owen, Secretary to the British Commission at the Vienna Exhibition" offers a glimpse into an important moment in history. Captured by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases Mr Owen, a distinguished figure who played a significant role during the Vienna Exhibition. The image portrays Mr Owen with an air of authority and sophistication. Dressed impeccably in formal attire befitting his position as Secretary to the British Commission, he exudes confidence and professionalism. His gaze is focused yet approachable, hinting at his dedication to his duties. The Vienna Exhibition was a prestigious event that showcased technological advancements and cultural achievements from around the world. As Secretary to the British Commission, Mr Owen would have been responsible for coordinating Britain's participation and ensuring its representation was both impressive and influential. This engraving originally appeared as an illustration in The Illustrated London News on November 8th, 1873. It serves as a testament to not only Mr Owen's contribution but also highlights how such exhibitions were celebrated during this era. Now preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill of the English School artist and gain insight into an important historical event. It reminds us of our shared past and encourages us to reflect on how far we have come since then.
