Today is the 160th celebration of the first World's Fair known as The Great Exhibition of 1851 held in London, England during the reign of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.In Google's tradition, the anniversary was recognized by using the artful decoration over its search bar. When moused-over, a magnifying glass appears and enlarges the art underneath. Details are seen as the fountain flows with water.
To learn more about The Great Exhibition, read a short summary here or read The World for a Shilling (Leapman). Or, work The Crystal Palace 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle!
