EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in history as The Prince of Wales, later known as King Edward VII, presides over a meeting held at the South Kensington Museum. The occasion? None other than the Commissioners for the Paris Exhibition. The image portrays an air of grandeur and importance, with distinguished individuals gathered around a table adorned with documents and maps. As royalty takes center stage, their presence commands attention and respect from all those present. This gathering is not just any ordinary meeting; it is one that will shape the future of art and culture. The setting itself holds significance - the South Kensington Museum, now known as the Victoria and Albert Museum, serves as a fitting backdrop for this prestigious event. Its halls are filled with priceless treasures from around the world, making it an ideal location to discuss matters pertaining to such an esteemed exhibition. Intriguingly, this engraving also provides us with a glimpse into Victorian society's fascination with royal figures. The Prince of Wales' role in presiding over this meeting highlights his influence on cultural affairs during his time. As we gaze upon this historical print captured by English School artists in the 19th century, we cannot help but be transported back to that era when meetings like these shaped our understanding of art exhibitions forevermore.
