Photograph of a marble statue depicting Eve after the Fall. The female figure sits unclothed on a rock with her right leg tucked behind her left. Her left arm falls across her torso and rests on her right thigh. She supports herself with her right arm. She looks down towards a child peeping from behind the rock on the right. The sculpture is by Raffaelle Monti (1818-81) and was exhibited at the 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).
