As the refurbished #SainsburyWing opens, we reflect on the 2024 @OxfordConted
course celebrating @NationalGallery 's 200th anniversary. My students & I accessed archival treasures, including the first NG catalogue of 1824 expertly arranged by the remarkable Nick Smith. #NG200

In loving memory of Margaret Ann Davies, whose kindness and love shaped a legacy of good-heartedness through her children.
May her spirit continue to inspire us all.

@malcontentkiwi @OxfordConted There are still few places on the Pre-Raphaelites, beauty, passion, addiction, death...this group has it all; not to mention they are significant for Oxford and Christ Church in particular! tempted?

In loving memory 🕊️🤍 Today, 134 years ago, Vincent passed away. ‘The day will come, though, when people will see that they’re worth more than the cost of the paint and my subsistence, very meagre in fact, that we put into them’. ✍️ to his brother Theo van Gogh, 1888.

Over the last year I am facing issues with my voice. This book is a gift from a student on the 2024 #Inspiring #Oxford at #Brasenose who joined after I discussed the program with her cousin,  a student on my 2023 & 2024 summer courses in #ChristChurch @OxfordConted
My gratitude
