The Grandeur of the Crystal Palace
With the construction of the Crystal Palace being such a spectacle, many art pieces were created to showcase the beauty of its creation. Not only were there pieces written that emphasized the objects throughout the Great Exhibition, but there were also paintings and drawings made that placed the exterior of the Crystal Palace into the spotlight. The creative art made during the Great Exhibition allows reflection on the capitalist nature growing within British society, as well as the great pride they had in their nation.
