Edwin Landseer’s ‘Man Proposes, God Disposes’ depicts John Franklin’s failed expedition to find the Northwest passage in 1845. The painting is infamous among @RoyalHolloway students as it is believed it be cursed!

Briton Riviere’s ‘Sympathy’ shows a little girl banished to the naughty step, being offered comfort by her sympathetic dog. This sentimental painting was very popular with Victorian audiences, with countless reproductions being made

‘This done, he took the bride about the neck,
And kiss'd her lips with such a clamorous smack
That at the parting all the church did echo’

- The Taming of the Shrew, Act 3, Scene 2

Happy 226th birthday to Clarkson Frederick Stanfield, born #OTD in 1793! Admired by John Ruskin and close friends with Charles Dickens, Stanfield was well known for his monumental landscapes, such as this one: 'View of the Pic du Midi d'Ossau in the Pyrenees, with Brigands'
