EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite carved ivory cup, a masterpiece created by F. Böhler in the Zollverein Department during the International Exhibition of 1862. The cup, adorned with intricate designs of deer and other animals, is a testament to the extraordinary craftsmanship of the unknown peasant artist who carved it in the German woods. The cup's value goes beyond its aesthetic appeal, as it offers a glimpse into the rich cultural traditions of the time. The gold lining adds an extra layer of allure to this ornate and decorated artifact. The International Exhibition of 1862, also known as the Great London Exposition, was a significant cultural event that brought together various nations to showcase their achievements in art, industry, and technology. This print, published in the Illustrated London News, offers a glimpse into the diverse and decorative arts that were on display. The hand-carved ivory cup by F. Böhler is a prime example of the handicrafts and artisanal skills that were celebrated during the exhibition. The print, with its detailed engraving and elegant composition, invites us to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of this wonderful work of art.
