Framed Print of The Peruvian Exhibition at Lima, 1872. Creator: Unknown
The Peruvian National Exhibition of Arts and Industry at Lima, 1872. Engraving from a photograph by Mr. V. L. Richardson. The building...is of a stately aspect, and stands in a spacious park...The architect was an Italian, Signor A. Leonardo [sic]...The Exhibition Palace is a square of buildings around the patio or open court, in which is a garden parterre, with a stand for musicians to play at the hour of the promenade. The four sides of the ground floor are occupied by the collection of Peruvian antiquities, the sculpture, bronze figures, and wood-carvings, the manufacture of cutlery, firearms, and saddlery, and samples of Chilian agricultural produce. In the galleries upstairs are the pictures, musical instruments, furniture...and a variety of other objects...The adjacent gardens, which are beautifully arranged, contain a Moorish pavilion for the reception of the President, an aviary, and an inclosure for native animals...It is to be feared, however, that the result has not been equal to the expectations of its designers and promoters; since the dreadful scenes of the late revolution at Lima, the murder of the President, and the fierce outbreak of party rage that ensued can hardly be favourable to an Industrial Exhibition'.
