Brasenose College

Hover over image to zoom in and see detail of image

The original Charter established a College to be called 'The King's Hall and College of Brasenose' for the study of sophistry, logic, philosophy and, above all, theology.

The founders of Brasenose College were Sir Richard Sutton, a lawyer, and William Smyth, Bishop of Lincoln. Both were from the north west and the College has retained strong links with Cheshire and Lancashire throughout its history. The Bishop provided for the expenses of the building and the lawyer acquired the property for the site.

About the Products

Charles Broadhurst was born in Birmingham on 22nd August 1903 but moved with his family to Oxford when he was very young. He did not realise his talent until a footballing injury gave him time to experiment with pencil and paper.

Now 90 years on, and just short of 100 images later, his sons are making his artistry available to the world at large. Not all images will be made available but the expectation is that the list available for purchase will eventually number close to 60.

In both A3 (297 x 420 mm, 11.69 x 16.54 inches, £15) and A4 (210 x 297 mm 8.27 x 11.69 inches, £10) sizes the prints available for sale are taken directly from the original pen and ink drawings, using the latest reprographic techniques.

Delivery is an additional £3.50 to anywhere in the world.
