Description
Deborah Hill's 'Queen's University A5 Print' is an artistic celebration of one of Belfast's most esteemed educational institutions. Founded in 1845, Queen's University stands as the ninth oldest university in the UK, embodying a rich history of academic excellence and societal contribution. The University, a brainchild of Queen Victoria, was established as a non-denominational alternative to Trinity College Dublin, marking a significant moment in Irish educational history. Today, it is renowned for its world-class research and diverse student body, hosting around 23,000 students from over 80 countries.
This A5 print beautifully depicts the University's iconic main building, designed in 1849 by Sir Charles Lanyon, who also crafted other Belfast landmarks like Belfast Castle and Crumlin Road Gaol. The University's architecture is a testament to Belfast's cultural heritage, with over 300 buildings, many listed for their architectural importance. Notable figures associated with the University include the Nobel Prize-winning poet Seamus Heaney and former First Minister, Lord Trimble.
