An evening of heraldry and history - art historian Bendor Grosvenor reveals our latest portrait acquisition and expert Chloe Cockerill presents an entertaining introduction to heraldry.
Lecture: Helms, hatchments and hedgehogs: an introduction to heraldry, Chloe Cockerill

Lecture: 'From God we receive life, from a physician we recover it, and from Van Dyck we preserve it', Dr Bendor Grosvenor
An exploration of the RCP’s newly acquired portrait of Baldwin Hamey, discussing whether it was, as Hamey seems to have claimed, painted by van Dyck himself.
