A VISIT TO PENN'S MARINE ENGINE FACTORY, AT GREENWICH:...GREAT CYLINDER FOR A...STEAM-ENGINE, 1865. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.
A visit to Penn's Marine Engine Factory, at Greenwich: casting a great cylinder for a marine steam-engine, 1865. Illustration representing '...the molten metal being poured into the mould ...the mass of metal, while of immense magnitude, has to be cast with all the exactness and perfection that can be given to the smallest castings...The iron...is melted in several cupolas... and the molten iron runs through small canals into the foundry, where they empty themselves into two immense cauldrons...The pouring so large a mass of metal equally into the mould is a most important matter, and is executed by the principal founder, for irregularity or too quickly running the metal would not only spoil the casting, but might endanger the lives of those present. The operation...requires from twenty to thirty tons of iron to fill the mould...The scene during the few minutes occupied in filling the mould is particularly fine in effect; the hitherto dark foundry being suddenly lit up with the glare of the rivers of liquid iron running over the lips of the cauldrons... the bright glow of the molten iron, almost white in its intense heat, lights up the features and forms of the workmen and numerous visitors in a wondrous manner'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865. A visit to Penn's Marine Engine Factory, at Greenwich:...great cylinder for a...steam-engine, 1865. Creator: Unknown.

THE WAR IN SCHLESWIG: THE 9TH REGIMENT OF HUSSARS...BIVOUACKING ON THE BATTLEFIELD..., 1864. CREATOR: UNKNOWN.
The War in Schleswig: the 9th regiment of hussars (Prince Liechtenstein's) bivouacking on the battlefield of Over-Selk after the fight - from a sketch by our special artist, 1864.'Far as the eye could reach we saw...the smoke of camp fires. Since Monday 15,000 Austrians and as many more Prussians have had to bivouac in the open air. The country between Breckendorf and Over-Selk was of the bleakest and most inhospitable description...Hedges there were none, as the Danes had cut down what few there existed previously to their retreat...The snow lay an inch and a half deep on the ground when we arrived, and the temperature was not a degree above zero. As we afterwards learnt from the officers and men themselves, the privations they had undergone from Tuesday to Thursday were fearful in the extreme. By Tuesday night there was not a crumb of broad or a glass of drink in any of the few villages in the neighbourhood for miles round. On Wednesday and Thursday the majority of the troops had nothing beyond a slice of black bread to eat and cold water to drink...The army had brought not a single tent with it, and in this wintry weather the men had had to pass three nights in the open air while it was constantly snowing, raining, or freezing'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864. The War in Schleswig: the 9th regiment of hussars...bivouacking on the battlefield..., 1864. Creator: Unknown. (KEYSTONE/HERITAGE IMAGES/THE PRINT COLLECTOR)
