Our Great National Temple of Art and Industry

An initiative of the Royal Irish Academy’s Historical Studies Committee, consisting of a collaborative exhibition, plenary session and conference in collaboration with the RDS, and the National Gallery of Ireland across the month of November 2023.

Abstract: The Great Industrial Exhibition was situated in Leinster Lawn, Dublin, 12 May-31 October 1853. it was organised to promote industrial collaboration and expand trade connections from Ireland at the crossroads of art and design. The Expositor newspaper, published weekly onsite, campaigned and advertised events for the Exhibition. Souvenir makers perfected the art of serial production to supply the Great Exhibitions of London 1851 and Dublin 1853, as sources for expanding markets. A black papier mâché box by Jennens & Betteridge, Makers to the Queen, is at the centre of this contribution, which examines commemorative medals, souvenirs and ephemera advocating the Irish Industrial Exhibition 1853 and commodity culture.
