EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and intricacy of "The Nave from the North end, Commencement of Montis Fountain". Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases a remarkable architectural feat - The Crystal Palace in Sydenham. The image transports us back to a time when this magnificent structure was still under construction. The assembly of girders and scaffolding fills the frame, highlighting the sheer scale and complexity involved in building such an iconic landmark. The viewer is drawn towards the north end of the nave where Montis Fountain stands as a symbol of elegance amidst the chaos. This print not only serves as a visual documentation but also holds historical significance. It was originally used as an illustration for auction particulars of The Crystal Palace, which were scheduled to be sold on November 28th, 1911. Credited to Hudson & Kearns Ltd. , these illustrations provided potential buyers with glimpses into what awaited them within this architectural marvel. Now part of a private collection, this image offers us a glimpse into both past construction techniques and artistic representation during that era. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today, reminding us of our ability to create awe-inspiring structures that stand as testaments to human ingenuity and ambition.
