"H Granville Fell: A Journey Through Time and Art" Step into the world of H Granville Fell, a renowned collector and connoisseur of art from various periods. His collection spans centuries, showcasing exquisite pieces that offer glimpses into different eras. One such masterpiece is "The Virgin and Child with Angels: Leaf of the Wilton Diptych" from c1395. This delicate artwork captures the divine beauty of motherhood, evoking a sense of serenity and devotion. Moving forward in time, we encounter "The Apotheosis of the Duke of Buckingham" from c1900. Created in 1936 by an unknown artist, this piece immortalizes the grandeur and power associated with nobility during that era. As we explore further, we come across "America or the New World" by Abraham Ortelius from 1570. Ortelius's map provides us with a glimpse into how people perceived America during this period—a land full of mystery and promise. In contrast to maps, there are also intricate textiles like "A Rare Petit Point Picture of the Period of Charles I. " Crafted in the 17th century but acquired by Fell in 1936, it showcases skilled needlework depicting scenes from a bygone era. Fell's collection extends beyond Europe to South America as well. Gerardus Mercator's depiction titled "South America (America Meridionalis)" offers insight into how Europeans envisioned this vast continent during their explorations. Not limited to paintings or textiles alone, Fell also appreciates ancient artifacts like the "Wine Vessel: KU, " dating back to c12th-3rd century BC. This bronze vessel tells stories about ancient civilizations' rituals and customs surrounding wine consumption. Amongst his diverse acquisitions is Guillaume Desremaulx's portrait titled "Knight with Arms Jean de Daillon.
