This print captures a significant moment in art history - the unveiling of the New National Gallery picture. The painting showcased in this image is none other than Samuel Rogers, the esteemed banker poet who played a pivotal role in enriching the gallery's collection with two remarkable treasures. Thanks to his generosity, we are able to admire the exquisite figure of a knight by Giorgione and Noli me Tangere by Titian. Dated 9th March 1926, this photograph transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of Europe between the wars. It serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and philanthropy during this transformative period. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timelessness, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail captured by Central News. As we delve into this piece of Europeana photography, it is important to note that it represents more than just a commercial product or company branding.
