Handel Ornament

Mrs. Gardner espoused a deep love for music and performance. The Museum keeps this passion for music alive in the present with concerts and music-themed events. 

To that end, we present this ornament of the German/British composer George Frideric Handel, complete with his era-specific powdered wig. In his gloved hand, he clutches a musical score. 

Ornaments of other subjects and musicians featured in the Gardner Museum also available. Complete your collection of Gardner Museum-inspired ornaments with Handel!
