The Great London Exposition, held from May 1 to November 1, 1862, in South Kensington, London, drew visitors from all corners of the world. This photograph captures the excitement of the day as people from all walks of life make their way through the archway, dressed in the fashionable attire of the Victorian era. Men don top hats and frock coats, while women show off their crinolines and hoopskirts. The intricate architectural features of the arch, with its ornate arches and columns, add to the grandeur of the scene. The Horticultural Society's Gardens, now part of the famous Kensington Gardens, served as a popular tourist attraction during the exhibition.
