Celebrating Queen Charlotte's Coronation August 23, 2012

Celebrating Queen Charlotte's Coronation combines works of art from the museum's permanent collection, including paintings, works on paper, and decorative arts, with loans from private collections to highlight the Queen's accomplishments as a devoted mother, a notable patron of the arts, and a loyal consort to the King. Royal portraits by Allan Ramsay, Sir Joshua Reynolds, and Sir William Beechey are featured in the exhibition, as are representative examples of works from the English manufactories--Wedgwood, Chelsea, Worcester, and others--patronized by the Queen.
