Image Size 18 x 15 inches. Splendid view of the Foreign Department viewed from the first floor balcony towards the Transept with masses of people thronging through the massive exhibits. Some slight damp marks and a little marginal foxing, but overall the image is in good condition.

The view gives a great feeling of the scale of the building encompassing many thousands exhibits, and hundreds of people filing through its corridors. Seller Inventory # 25500
