The International Exhibition: carved ivory cup, by F. Böhler, in the Zollverein Department, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The International Exhibition: carved ivory cup, by F. Bohler, in the Zollverein Department, 1862. The cup...is surrounded by a relief copy of Landseer's "Deerstalkers Return, " below which the rose, thistle, and shamrock are braided with the ornament. The base is set with medallions bearing emblems of the chase; and the whole is surmounted by a figure of the Prince of Wales in his Highland costume. The carving is delicate and fine and the figures are well rendered; yet, in point of design, there are certain defects arising from the high relief of the subject'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the exquisite carved ivory cup created by F. Böhler for the Zollverein Department at the International Exhibition of 1862. The cup is adorned with a relief copy of Edwin Landseer's renowned painting "Deerstalkers' Return," which is encircled by the interwoven symbols of the rose, thistle, and shamrock. The base of the cup is embellished with medallions bearing emblems of the chase. The figure of HRH Prince Albert Edward, later known as King Edward VII of Great Britain and Ireland, is depicted in his Highland costume atop the cup. The intricate carving is a testament to the artist's skill, with delicate and fine details that bring the figures to life. However, the design is not without its flaws, as the high relief of the subject creates certain defects. This magnificent artifact, captured in black and white, is a stunning representation of the ornate decorative arts showcased during the 19th century's cultural events, such as the Great London Exposition of 1862. The cup is a prime example of the handcrafted beauty that was celebrated during this era, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical artifacts.
