Description: | Workmen prepare a case for the display of marine objects at the Crystal Palace exhibition hall at Sydenham. The Crystal Palace was originally built in Hyde Park to contain the 1851 Great Exhibition, a showcase for British arts and industries. Following the closure of the exhibition, the structure was dismantled and rebuilt in Sydenham, south London, where it housed a national centre of entertainment and enlightenment for the British public. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Publisher: | The Photographic Institution | Rights holder: | British Library | Subjects: | Education Construction Industry Cartography And Topography Leisure And The Arts Science And Technology Architecture Attractions People And Society Natural World Trade And Economics Industry | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Delamotte, Philip Henry (1820 - 1889) | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
