EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Progress of the Crystal Palace at Sydenham, 1854" captures a significant moment in British history. Created by Philip Henry Delamotte in the 19th century using albumen silver prints, this image showcases the remarkable transformation of Crystal Palace Park in Bromley, London. The photograph transports us back to a time when Britain was experiencing great advancements and achievements. The Crystal Palace itself was originally built for the Great Exhibition of 1851 and became an iconic symbol of progress and innovation. Delamotte's lens beautifully captures its grandeur as it stands tall against the backdrop of a serene ornamental lake. The image also highlights the architectural prowess of Tower Bridge, which adds another layer of historical significance to this scene. As we gaze upon this landscape, we can't help but marvel at how these structures have shaped our modern world. Delamotte's photography skillfully portrays both the exterior beauty and intricate details of these monumental structures. It serves as a testament to his talent as well as his dedication to preserving important moments in history through his art. Now housed within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only Delamotte's work but also the rich heritage that lies within each frame. It is a visual reminder that progress is constant and ever-evolving – just like these magnificent landmarks themselves.
