Our Story

The Lady Isabel Foundation was established by The Marquess of Caelthorne, Augustus J.N.M. A Fine Artist with a purpose. When Caelthorne’s mother – Isabel Lilian – passed away, the trauma and extreme loss he experienced was life altering. In his attempt to “move on” from her death, Caelthorne started struggling with substance abuse and was submitted to a Mental Health Facility, where he received in-depth and extensive treatment for his loss, grief, and mental health. 

Lord Caelthorne made it his duty, from his late mother’s passing, to “heal through healing others” and share her most valuable treasures: love, kindness, compassion, empathy, sympathy and her fight for equality and fairness. 

The Lady Isabel Foundation was established with a deeply held personal commitment to social justice and a desire to create sustainable, impactful change in the lives of the deprived and disadvantaged groups and communities. One life, at a time.

The decorative art curated and created by Caelthorne, refers to fragments of his own past (Caelthorne and his sister, together with his late mother are survivors themselves of a very aggressive and violent upbringing) and is testament to his personal relation to every art piece’s narrative. The Lady Isabel Art Collection is a series of affordable decorative art, where a limited amount of prints will be made available – not just to keep the collection limited because of the narratives and the purpose it serves, but also for you, the collector’s limited addition to your own collection.

“I am Art, and Art is Me. Art is around all of us, the art of designing a house, or a garment, the art of business, the art of raising children, the art of making a change… Most importantly, art in turn creates more art. The Lady Isabel Art Collection, is a work of art itself, as it encourages hope, kindness, love, respect, patience… and hopefully something that each viewer, collector or buyer can relate to, to tell their own story” – Caelthorne.
