"Filbert: A Nutty Legacy in Leicester City" At the King Power Stadium Art, a tribute to Filbert Street Art stands tall, reminding us of the rich history of Leicester City. Just like the nuts with shells, this iconic street was once filled with excitement and passion for football. The Filbert Street Stadium witnessed countless victories and celebrated moments that will forever be etched in our hearts. But what exactly is a filbert? It's not just any nut; it's a fruit en chaton, known for its delicious taste and unique shape. Le Vocabulaire Illustre introduces us to Aveline, Filbert, and Hambertsnusz through an enchanting engraving that captures their essence. Travel back in time to Pennsylvania Railroad Station on Market Street West at Penn Square in 1889. An albumen print transports us to an era where filberts were cherished treats enjoyed by many. Flip through the pages of a catalogue from 1895 dedicated to Ironmongery and Hardware Trades, where filberts found their place among essential goods. Music has always been intertwined with culture, and Gilbert the Filbert takes center stage as a charming music cover. Elsie Janis & Basil Hallam captivated audiences in the Passing Show with their incredible performances that left everyone wanting more. From art to sports stadiums, from prints to catalogues – "Filbert" weaves itself into various aspects of history and culture. It symbolizes resilience, tradition, and above all else - community spirit. As we celebrate Leicester City FC's legacy at both King Power Stadium Art and Filbert Street Art alike let us remember how something as simple as a nut can leave such an indelible mark on our lives.
