Grand National Eisteddfod at Carnarvon Castle, Wales, 1862: A Gathering of Welsh Culture and Creativity This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and excitement of the Grand National Eisteddfod held at Carnarvon Castle in Wales during 1862. The Eisteddfod, a great national congress of Cambrian bards, minstrels, historians, and artisans, attracted an average attendance of 13,000 people each day. The marquee in which the company assembled was meticulously designed by Mr. D. Thomas to provide full comfort to between 7000 and 8000 attendees. The roof-cloth of the pavilion was adorned with various ornaments, and from the roof-tree, flags of various sizes and designs floated proudly. The subjects for competition at the Eisteddfod were diverse and extensive. They included Welsh dwelling-houses, poetry, music, arts, and science, with prizes awarded for poetry, performances on the harmonium, harp, and piano, designs in improved shipbuilding, public building, and slate-quarrying, models of new agricultural implements, essays on various subjects, choral, quartet, and band competition, singing music at sight, painting, and architecture. The proceedings of the Eisteddfod were a resounding success, with attendees showcasing their talents and creativity in various forms. However, the joy and excitement were tempered by the sad news on the last day of the death of one of Wales's most eminent men, Ap Ithel. Despite this, the Eisteddfod of 1862 remains a significant moment in Welsh cultural history, celebrating the richness and diversity of Welsh art, literature, and creativity.
