Légende
The Smithfield Prize Cattle Show, 1845. Agricultural show in London. 'The arrangements for the Exhibition presented this year an entirely new character; the entire courtyard of the Horse Bazaar King street, Baker-street, 195 feet Iong, by 50 feet wide, formerly only temporarily covered in with canvass, was, this year, surmounted by a light and elegant iron tension trussed roof, well lighted by a ridge lantern extending the whole length. On the west side, a spacious gallery, 40 feet wide, has been thrown open to the arena...The whole of these improvements were designed by, and executed under the direction of, Mr. Boulnois, jun., architect. The general arrangements for the Show were, throughout, most excellent and complete, and reflect the highest credit upon those gentlemen to whom the management was entrusted'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
