EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print depicts the grand opening of the Crystal Palace in Sydenham, London, on the 10th of June, 1854. Her Majesty Queen Victoria, the Empress of India, is seen gracefully entering the palace, accompanied by an entourage of nobility and dignitaries. The Crystal Palace, an architectural marvel of the Victorian era, was originally built for the Great Exhibition of 1851 in Hyde Park, London, and was later relocated to Sydenham due to its popularity and the need for a permanent home. The palace, renowned for its unique iron and glass structure, was a symbol of Britain's industrial prowess and was considered a must-see attraction for visitors from around the world. The opening ceremony was a grand affair, with thousands of people gathered to witness the event. This engraving, published in Cassells Illustrated Family Paper in 1853-1854, captures the essence of the occasion, providing a glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of the Victorian era.
