Christopher Lennox Boyd, allocated to the Museum by H.M. Government in lieu of inheritance tax in 2015. The collection of over 600 fans ranges in date from the 18th to the 20th centuries and in type from bejewelled and hand-painted court and wedding fans, to printed mass-produced advertising fans, aide-memoire fans, mourning fans and children’s fans. This type of ‘novelty’ fan was produced in large numbers in the 1870s. It was popularised by the Princess of Wales (later Queen Alexandra) who was photographed holding such a fan at a society ball in 1871. As the Emperor of Brazil, Pedro II (reigned 1831–91) visited England around this time, he may have brought a number of these fans with him as gifts. reference term-106853 adlib-term-106853 25492eb4-1164-35eb-8dce-3601486f3415 19th Century reference term-121430 adlib-term-121430 91d5ee74-b16b-363e-9bc0-f00d48542a97 literal Brazil Brazil country Brazil reference term-109566 adlib-term-109566 d4c82710-992a-334e-8267-7b59546717a2 fan reference term-106246 adlib-term-106246 3c8d7753-a7af-38fc-96e0-f16e7d46d3d0 box history note Lennox Boyd Estate.
