The International Exhibition: iron candelabra for churches, from the Royal Foundry, Berlin, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: iron candelabra for churches, from the Royal Foundry, Berlin, 1862. The Royal Ironfoundry of Berlin exhibits a number of works...which are beautiful in their artistic qualities and excellent as examples of ironwork. Our engraving will convey a very full idea of the nature of these works, as they are without colour, save in one or two instances, where a line of silver or a simple form is inlaid. This, however, is sparingly done, and does not materially modify the effect. The central piece is in the German Gothic style, and the others are in a kind of Italian Renaissance, but the works are more exalted when viewed as examples of ironwork than of art - for as castings they are exceedingly beautiful, while as works of art they are, while good, yet not as equal to some works of peculiar magnificence which are in the exhibition'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print showcases The International Exhibition: iron candelabra for churches from the Royal Foundry in Berlin, exhibited in 1862. The image reveals a stunning collection of iron candelabras, with the central piece showcasing the German Gothic style, while others exhibit a kind of Italian Renaissance influence. Although these works are beautiful in their artistic qualities, they are arguably more impressive as examples of ironwork. The intricate details and patterns of the castings are truly exalted in this image, with minimal color used, only in a few instances where a line of silver or a simple form is inlaid. The ironwork's beauty is not only in its artistic merit but also in its technical excellence. These iron candelabras, while good works of art, are particularly noteworthy for their beauty as castings, showcasing the remarkable skill and craftsmanship of the Royal Foundry in Berlin during this period.
