EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the heart of the Victorian era, showcasing the awe-inspiring Crystal Palace Dinosaur Models, installed at Crystal Palace Park in 1854. These remarkable sculptures were the brainchild of Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins, who worked closely with Joseph Paxton and Richard Owen to bring the prehistoric creatures to life. The models, which were the first of their kind, were meticulously crafted based on the scientific knowledge of the time, and represented a groundbreaking fusion of art and science. The models on display span various groups of extinct reptiles, including Lacertilia, Archosauria, Diapsida, Lepidosauria, Dinosauria, and Lepidosaur. Some of the most notable figures include the Iguanodon, the Megalosaurus, and the Hylaeosaurus. These models were not only a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins but also played a significant role in shaping the public's perception of dinosaurs and their place in the natural world. The photograph, taken by Derek Adams, captures the grandeur and majesty of the models, which continue to fascinate and inspire visitors to this day. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the world was just beginning to unravel the mysteries of these ancient creatures. The Crystal Palace Dinosaur Models stand as a testament to the power of human curiosity and the enduring allure of the natural world.
