EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured lithograph captures the grandeur and magnificence of the Crystal Palace, an iconic structure that stood tall in Hyde Park during the Great Exhibition of 1851. The image showcases a bustling scene within the palace's interior, teeming with visitors from all corners of the world. The Crystal Palace was a symbol of industry and commerce, serving as a showcase for innovative exhibits from various countries. In this print, one can marvel at the intricate sculptures and statues adorning its galleries while fountains gracefully cascade in the background. The exhibition attracted countless curious minds eager to witness technological advancements and artistic wonders. Amidst this lively atmosphere, men donning top hats mingle with women dressed in crinoline gowns - both reflecting Victorian fashion trends. Queen Victoria herself attended this international fair alongside her beloved Prince Albert, further adding to its prestige. Augustus Butler's masterful lithography brings every detail to life; it is as if one could step into this historical moment themselves. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and creativity during an era marked by progress and innovation. Courtesy of New College, Oxford, we are fortunate enough to have access to such remarkable artwork that immortalizes an important chapter in British history. It reminds us of our rich heritage and invites us to appreciate how far we have come since then.
