The Shakspeare Commemoration in London: monument of Shakspeare at the Crystal Palace, 1864. Event celebrating the tercentenary of Shakespeares birth. The Crystal Palace Company made this Saturday a shilling day instead of a half-crown day, as usual. They have now opened to public view the exact representation of Shakspeares house, of the same size as the original, modelled by Mr. E. T. Parris, in the central transept, with the Shakspeare Court, which contains models of the bust on his tomb and of the tombs of his wife and daughter. Our Engraving shows the monument, by Mr. Thomas, now erected on the terrace. It was in the Great Exhibition of 1862. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
