This print captures a moment of grandeur and significance in the late Victorian era. The image showcases the ceremonial keys presented at the opening of the National Art Treasure Exhibition in Folkestone, England, in 1886. Crafted from gleaming gold, these keys symbolize both power and prestige. The wood engraving, sourced from a contemporary English newspaper, beautifully portrays the intricate details of these ornate keys. Each key is meticulously designed with decorative motifs that reflect the opulence of the time. As we gaze upon this historic artifact, we are transported back to an era where art was revered as a national treasure. This image pays homage to an event that brought together members of England's upper class society who gathered to celebrate their shared love for art and culture.
