The International Exhibition: stove by Messrs. Feetham and Co. 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: stove by Messrs. Feetham and Co. 1862. This work...is very simple, and yet, at the same time, exceedingly beautiful; indeed, it will generally be found that simplicity and beauty are associated, and that, when simplicity is departed from, beauty is to an extent sacrificed. The grate which we engrave is of ground and burnished steel, and the face, which is exceedingly bright, is enriched by a small diaper extending equally over the surface, and diminishing the glare which an unbroken mirror-like plane would present. Surrounding the grate is the chimneypiece, which is formed of statuary marble. Two bracketlike acanthus-leaves occur at the sides, two acanthus bosses in the comers, a group of laurel-branches in the centre, and certain flutings in the uprights. The delicacy of the carving is worthy of especial notice, for the few ornaments are rendered with that feeling which indicates the working of a master-mind'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the stove exhibit by Messrs. Feetham and Co., showcased at The International Exhibition in 1862. The simplicity of the design is striking, yet it manages to exude an extraordinary level of beauty. The grate, made of ground and burnished steel, features a small diaper pattern that breaks up the reflective surface and reduces glare. The chimneypiece, crafted from statuary marble, adds an elegant and refined touch. The intricate carving on the chimneypiece is a testament to the masterful craftsmanship of the time. The acanthus leaves and laurel branches are delicately rendered, their details standing out against the marble background. The few ornaments are executed with a deft touch, revealing the skillful hand of the artisan behind this timeless piece. The balance between simplicity and intricacy in this stove design is a testament to the enduring allure of functional art.
