EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a momentous event in London's history. This print, created by artist JC Armytage, takes us back to the grandeur of the first international exhibition organized by Henry Cole and Prince Albert in 1851. The image showcases an elaborate scene with numerous buildings that housed various exhibits from different countries. The architecture is awe-inspiring, reflecting the advancements of the time. As we explore this bustling outdoor park setting, we see men and women from all walks of life engaging with the displays and enjoying this cultural extravaganza. The print not only provides a glimpse into a significant historical event but also serves as a testament to the popularity of World's Fair exhibitions during the 19th century. It is fascinating to imagine how people marveled at these innovative creations that showcased both culture and industry. This particular artwork comes from "The History of England Div VII" by David Hume & Tobias Smollett, published by Virtue & Co. , London in 1859. Its inclusion in this literature signifies its importance as a visual representation of an era marked by progress and innovation. As we admire this monochrome vista captured through Wray's engraving technique, it reminds us of how far society has come since then while also appreciating our rich historical heritage.
