EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage engraving captures a significant contribution to the Great Exhibition in London, UK: Prince Albert's Model Lodging House for the Working Classes. Erected at the Cavalry Barracks in Hyde Park, this block of model houses was designed by Prince Albert himself and funded entirely from his own pocket. The year was 1851, and this engraving beautifully showcases the Victorian era's architectural style. The model houses were specifically created to provide accommodation for four families, addressing the pressing need for suitable housing options for working-class individuals during that time. This engraving offers a glimpse into history, showcasing not only Prince Albert's dedication but also highlighting an important aspect of social progress during the 19th century. With its retro-styled illustrative technique and intricate details, this engraved image transports us back to a bygone era. It serves as a reminder of how culture and arts played an essential role in shaping society then and continue to do so today. Arkheia presents this historic art piece from Universal Images Group (UIG), allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic value and historical significance. Let it serve as a testament to Prince Albert's enduring legacy and his commitment towards improving living conditions for those less fortunate in society.
