Photograph of a marble statue of the nymph Glycera. She is represented standing and semi-nude, looking at a circular garland which she holds in her left hand. She holds a single flower in her right hand. She wears a piece of fabric draped over her legs. There is a basket of flowers next to her right leg. The sculpture by Richard James Wyatt (1799-1850) was displayed at the 1851 Great Exhibition.

This photograph is from Volume IV (RCIN 2800003) of ' Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, 1851: Reports by the Juries on the Subjects in the Thirty Classes into which the Exhibition was Divided'. The incredibly successful Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, commonly known as the Great Exhibition, ran from May to October 1851. At the exhibition's conclusion, over 100 copies of the four volume 'Reports by the Juries' were distributed to foreign governments and notable participants. The reports consist of the juries' comments and assessments of the works displayed in the exhibition. The idea and decision to illustrate the reports with photographs is attributed to Prince Albert (1819-61).
