The Great Exhibition "Wot is to Be", Probable Results of The Industry of All Nations in The Year '51, Showing What is to be Exhibited, Who is To Exhibit, in Short How Its All Going to Be Done 1850

This humorous caricature by George Augustus Sala, titled "The Great Exhibition ‘Wot is to Be,’ Probable Results of The Industry of All Nations in The Year ‘51, Showing What is to be Exhibited, Who is To Exhibit, in Short How Its All Going to Be Done,” mocks the anticipated spectacle of the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, organized as a celebration of Victorian industrial achievements. The artwork features a series of satirical sketches, including a lady riding a horse backwards, an orchestra of women with oversized bonnets, and a group of men with comically long noses and tails, offering a satirical commentary on the social and political climate of the time.
