18th/19th Century

Fine displays of furniture and decorative arts typical of the progressive period of the 18th century, showcasing the switch in style with an increase in prosperity among the gentry and merchant classes

Broadway Museum & Art Gallery exhibits fine old furniture, clocks and paintings from H. W. Keil’s collection. The import of luxury commodities such as porcelain, tea, coffee, chocolate, sugar revolutionised the appearance of fashionable living. Thanks to our partnership with the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, we have displays of 18th and 19th century paintings and porcelain, furniture and glasses, clocks and ceramics.
