Free Access to the Royal Holloway Picture Gallery

Conference Delegates are welcome to walk around the Gallery located on the first floor of the Founders Building (see the page: Campus Map).

The University’s art collection includes world-class paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings and watercolours including works by William Powell Frith, John Everett Millais and Edward Burne-Jones. Recent additions to the collection include works by Augustus John and Graham Sutherland. At the core of the collection are the legacies of two Victorian collectors: the entrepreneur Thomas Holloway and the artist Christiana Herringham. Their collections have been enhanced through additional gifts, acquisitions and commissions which span from the 17th century to the present day. The Thomas Holloway collection of Victorian paintings are housed in our stunning Grade 1 listed Picture Gallery.
