Made by Hamilton for the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Carnegie Prize was established in 1896, to recognize the best painting shown in the first annual exhibition of the Museum of Art, Carnegie Institute. Unlike most American annual exhibitions, which were limited to artists born or resident in the United States, the Carnegie exhibitions were international. To attract top painters from home and abroad, the Carnegie exhibitions offered high cash prizes.The exhibition has undergone a series of name changes and transformations-adding a gold medal for sculpture (beginning in 1958), and going from a schedule of every year to every second or third year, and now, to every fourth or fifth year. The exhibitions in the late 1970s were retrospectives of established artists. In 1982, the exhibition was renamed the Carnegie International, and returned to its original mission of showing recent works by a host of artists. In 1985, the Carnegie Prize was refocused to recognize not just a single work of art but an honoree's entire body of work. In the 1990s, the exhibition expanded to include non-traditional artists and filmmakers.
As of 2019, 67 Carnegie Prizes had been awarded.
Hamilton makes many medals, emblematic jewelry, awards and gifts for various academic institutions, business organizations, ancestral and civic groups, and more. Regardless of budget or design, our master jewelers can craft a distinctive piece to commemorate your milestone in a meaningful way.
