An interior view within the Crystal Palace showing a Romanesque arch, two tomb monuments, double-benches, bas-relief carving. 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'.
