EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The International Exhibition (engraving)" by the English School in the 19th century. The artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally featured as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on September 20,1862. The image transports us back to a time when grand exhibitions were held to showcase technological advancements and cultural treasures. In this particular scene, we witness the marvels of fire engines presented at the exhibition. These impressive machines were designed by Merryweather & Sons, renowned pioneers in firefighting technology. The engraving captures the attention of both inhabitants and visitors alike who gather around these magnificent contraptions. It is fascinating to observe how people from different walks of life come together in awe and admiration for these innovative creations. Notably, Lambeth resident Mr. F Hodges played a significant role in introducing his patent steam fire engine at this event. His contribution revolutionized firefighting techniques during that era. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of the importance placed on progress and innovation throughout history. This engraving serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of improvement while honoring those who dared to challenge convention and push boundaries for the betterment of society.
