Represents: A glimpse into history and the power of symbolism. From Admiral Nelson and Captain Hardy's unwavering leadership during the Battle of Trafalgar to the captivating beauty of FREYJA, each image tells a unique story. The majestic sounds emanating from an organ or the intricate craftsmanship behind Tippoos Tiger are testaments to human creativity. The sleek elegance of a Cadillac 1960 embodies timeless luxury, while The Book of Kells showcases the mastery of medieval scribes. The Macedonian Empire stands as a symbol of conquest and ambition, just like the bravery displayed by WW2 Canadian soldiers in their dugouts. Alston Court Dining Room exudes opulence, reflecting an era gone by, while Alston Court Hall whispers tales from centuries past. The Judgement Of Paris captures eternal beauty and its subjective nature, much like Un Petit Pierrot Dans Son Nid evokes innocence and wonderment. Lastly, a Titanic lettercard penned on board reminds us of both tragedy and resilience in the face of adversity – symbols that endure through time.
