EDITORS COMMENTS
This print offers a glimpse into the interior plans of the Temporary Glass Structure of The Great Industrial Exhibition, which took place in Hyde Park, London, between 1 May and 15 October 1851. Known as the Crystal Palace, this architectural marvel was a temporary venue designed to showcase the latest works of industry and innovation from around the world. The intricately detailed plans reveal the organization of the two floors of the galleries. The ground floor, as depicted on the left side of the print, was divided into various sections, including Machinery Hall, Manufactures in Iron and Steel, and the Timber, Furniture, and Carpets departments. The first floor, shown on the right side, housed the Departments of Fine Arts, Sculpture, and Painting, as well as the Foreign Courts, where visitors could explore the offerings from different nations. The Crystal Palace, a testament to Victorian engineering and design, was a significant event in 19th-century London. With its vast, open spaces and innovative use of glass, it provided a unique setting for the international exchange of ideas and the celebration of industrial progress. This print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the grandeur and innovation of The Great Industrial Exhibition in Hyde Park.
