Hello!
How are you? Today we'll look at some important discoveries and inventions of the Industrial Revolution (産業革命の発見、発明).
The picture above is of the Crystal Palace. This was a famous exhibition in London in the 19th century to show the accomplishments of the Industrial Revolution. Most of the exterior of the building was made of glass reinforced by steel. This exhibition was a great success that showed the British people what industry could do.
