The Foundling Museum reveals the poignant history of Britain's pioneering Foundling Hospital, a sanctuary for vulnerable children on the brink of abandonment. In addition to its impressive art collection, the museum proudly showcases The Gerald Coke Handel Collection, a treasure trove of invaluable artifacts connected to the renowned composer Handel and his notable peers. This stunning font, an integral part of the hospital's original collection, made its way into the institution in 1807
