The exposition building of the world exposition in London in 1862 had nothing to do with the constructiv and formal so unusual Crystal Palace of 1851. Instead it had been made of brick and designed with a mostly acdemical formalism.

The views [1862 | 1] and [1862 | 2] let you anticipate that the full of objects by industry, crafts, applied arts and other fields the exposition areas not only filled, but partly overfilled.

The famous Crystal Palace of 1851 had been build up again at his new location in Sydenham near London.
