The Crystal Palace Dinosaurs are a series of sculptures of dinosaurs and other extinct animals, incorrect by modern standards, in the London and made for the worlds fair of 1854. Sculpted by Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins under the scientific direction of Sir Richard Owen,

The man in the bowler hat is thinking how did I get out of the Magritte painting, a little surreal joke.
