Here’s a fresh rewrite that hits all the marks: John Absolon painted a watercolor of the East Nave in 1851. The work shows the Crystal Palace, a huge glass building from the Great Exhibition. The exhibition drew millions of visitors to see new products from around the world. This image was later used in a souvenir book called *Recollections of the Great Exhibition*. The profits helped start the Victoria and Albert Museum, which now holds this watercolor. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
