The engraving of "The Burning of the Alexandra Palace, London, 1873" captures a moment in history that is both tragic and captivating. The destruction by fire of this iconic palace is shown in vivid detail, with flames engulfing the building as onlookers watch in horror. In the foreground, a large group of people can be seen frantically removing paintings and other valuable items from the palace in an effort to preserve them from the raging inferno. Their faces are filled with fear and determination as they work together to save what they can. Viewed from the South-West, the scene is one of chaos and devastation. The once grand Alexandra Palace now lies in ruins, its walls crumbling under the intense heat of the fire. The historical significance of this event is evident in every brushstroke of this detailed engraving.
