A stereoscopic daguerreotype of interior at the Crystal Palace, Egyptian Court.

Lightly hand-coloured

An interior view of the Byzantine Court in the Crystal Palace. After housing the Great Exhibition in 1851 the Crystal Palace had been dismantled and rebuilt on a site at Sydenham, south east London, reopening in June 1854. The 'Palace of the People' as it became known, was at first a huge success as the world's first 'theme park'.

Campo Vacino a Rome.
