The Art of the English Regency Gallery features approximately fifty objects, many of which have never been on public display. The gallery’s striking fabric-draped ceiling evokes the 19th-century fashion for rooms that resembled military tents. A focal point at the center of the display is a gilt bronze and jewel-encrusted bust of George IV, presented by the royal family to the king’s physician. This gallery highlights gifts to the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±ÏÖ³¡Ö±²¥ from Horace Wood Brock and is one of the finest groupings of English Regency furniture and decorative arts in any American art museum.
