Created in England between 1701 and 1725, this ornate accessory showcases his dedication to modernity during a time when advancements were shaping society. St. George's Bloomsbury stands tall behind him as a testament to his patronage of architecture and devotion to religion. Built in 1844, this grand structure embodies both elegance and spirituality – qualities that defined King George I's reign. Amongst these depictions lies Voltaire himself - an influential philosopher who lived from 1694 to 1778.
