EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back to 1854, to an extraordinary moment in the annals of scientific history. The setting is the Crystal Palace Exhibition in Sydenham, London, where the latest advancements in art, industry, and science were showcased for the world to marvel at. Among these innovations was the towering Iguanodon model, meticulously crafted by renowned British sculptor Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins. Hawkins, a man of great vision and curiosity, extended an invitation to a select group of esteemed scientists to partake in an unforgettable dining experience. Seated around a grand table, set within the very jaws of the colossal Iguanodon model, these brilliant minds engaged in animated discussions, no doubt sharing their latest discoveries and theories. The Iguanodon, one of the first dinosaurs to be scientifically described, had only recently been identified from fossil remains. The public's fascination with these prehistoric creatures was at an all-time high, making this unique dining experience a sensation. The scientists, in the midst of their lively discourse, would have been acutely aware of the significance of their surroundings, as they dined inside the very replica of the very creature that had sparked their scientific curiosity. This photograph, a testament to the spirit of innovation and collaboration that defined the scientific community of the time, remains a captivating reminder of the extraordinary connection between art, science, and human curiosity.
