The Nativity
In this student prize work by one of Britain's visionary 20th-century painters the artist's mature style is instantly recognisable, the monumentality of his figures influenced by post-impressionism and Italian primitivism.
Under Milk Wood
This prize-winning Slade painting shows three strong women gossiping in a Portuguese kitchen, anticipating the dominant female characters in the artist's later work.
Female Figure
Works like this prize-winner by Carrington resulted from the Slade’s pioneering policy allowing women to draw from life.
Marmor
Homericum
The inhabitants of Delos listen as Homer recites the Iliad in this work commissioned by George Grote, one of UCL’s founders.

This vast panorama of Rome, composed of 6 plates, would have had pride of place in a 18th-century gentleman’s library.
