The International Exhibition of Science, Art & Industry or Edinburgh International Exhibition was held in 1890 between 1 May and 1 November 1890 in Edinburgh to mark the opening of the Forth Bridge one year earlier. The exhibition lost money despite three million visitors. The architect F.W. Simon was later the designer of the Manitoba Legislative Building in Winnipeg, Canada.
