The International Exhibition: chimneypiece by Jackson and Sons, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: chimneypiece by Jackson and Sons, 1862. Our engraving sets forth a chimneypiece by Messrs. George Jackson and Sons, of Rathbone-place, moulded in carton pierre, a new material which seems well suited to fabrication into articles of this class. The general block of this work is good, and the upright treatment of the frieze is suggestive of strength, which is always pleasing when a weight has to be sustained. The large brackets, terminated above in lions heads, spring direct from the base, and thus a sense of great security is conveyed. The mantel-shelf is peculiar in having projecting parts over the side brackets, and not the straight form, which is usual'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a chimneypiece, or fireplace mantel, designed by George Jackson and Sons, exhibited at The International Exhibition of 1862 in London. The creators of this architectural masterpiece used a new material called carton pierre for its fabrication. The chimneypiece is characterized by its robust and upright frieze, which conveys a sense of strength and stability. The large brackets, adorned with lions' heads, spring directly from the base, instilling a sense of security. The mantel-shelf is unique in its design, featuring projecting parts that extend over the side brackets, rather than the standard straight form. The chimneypiece also includes a looking glass, adding an element of elegance and sophistication to the piece. The intricate carvings, including caryatids and other ornate details, are hand carved and handicrafted, showcasing the skill and craftsmanship of the Jackson and Sons team. The print, published in the Illustrated London News in 1862, highlights the beauty and artistry of this Victorian-era chimneypiece. The engraving captures the essence of the International Exhibition of 1862, which celebrated the best in art, architecture, and culture from around the world. This print is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Victorian era and the beauty of handcrafted furniture and decorative arts.
