Join M.S. Rau Antiques for our premier exhibition exploring the culture and lavish lifestyle of the 19th-century British elite. The show, which is free and open to the public, will run through Saturday, January 20, 2018 at the M.S. Rau Gallery at 630 Royal Street in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Aristocracy: Luxury and Leisure in Britain illuminates the spectacular age of socioeconomic, cultural and artistic change through a wealth of art and superbly crafted objects, including furniture and fine art, as well as important pieces of provenance. From a rare royal commission by Edwin Henry Landseer to an extensive porcelain dinner service once owned by the Duke of Hamilton, the exhibition offers an intriguing glimpse into the sensations and spectacles of this superlative period.
