Gifts of Art that capture the Spirit of Beauty

Shelley wrote of the Spirit of Beauty as ' the awful shadow of some unseen Power’ that ‘floats though unseen among us’. He was very aware of the extent to which beautiful things can elevate the spirit. And here at Kipling de Freitas, so are we. That is why we are endeavouring to put together a collection of art, sculpture and other lovely objects in the hope that you, like Shelley, may be able to say to the Spirit of Beauty: ‘thy shadow fell on me; I shrieked, and clasped my hands in ecstasy.’
