EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning gas-lit chandelier, on display at the Paris Universal Exhibition (Exposition Universelle) of 1867, is a testament to the innovative spirit of the 1860s. Created by Herr Elster of Berlin, this chandelier showcases the latest advancements in lighting technology of the time. The Paris Universal Exhibition was an international exhibition held in Paris, France, from May to December 1867, and attracted millions of visitors from around the world. The exhibition was an opportunity for countries to showcase their industrial and cultural achievements, and the Elster gas-lit chandelier was a highlight of Germany's pavilion. The chandelier is a masterpiece of design and engineering, with intricately detailed glasswork and an impressive array of gas jets. The use of gas lighting was a significant departure from traditional candlelit chandeliers, offering a brighter, more consistent light source. The gas jets were fueled by coal gas, which was piped into the exhibition hall through an extensive network of pipes. The chandelier's elegant design and advanced technology made it a popular attraction, and it is believed that the Elster gas-lit chandelier helped to establish Herr Elster's reputation as a leading innovator in the field of lighting. This photograph, taken at the Paris Universal Exhibition, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of 19th-century lighting technology and the excitement of international exhibitions. The Elster gas-lit chandelier is a reminder of the ingenuity and creativity that characterized the 1860s and the role that innovation plays in shaping our world.
