Notes
The Chapel is at the centre of Trinity College and has played a key role in college life since its foundation in 1555.
The current Chapel was built at the end of the seventeenth century on the site of Trinity’s first chapel, the former Durham College chapel, which was consecrated over 600 years ago. It continues to be a place of worship and a space at the heart of the college where people come to pray, to sit quietly, listen to or play music. If you are visiting Trinity please do take some time to sit and enjoy its beauty.
Professor Martin John Kemp FBA is a British art historian and exhibition curator who is one of the world's leading authorities on the life and works of Leonardo da Vinci. A professor at Oxford since 1995, he is the author of many books on Leonardo, Kemp has also written about visualisation in art and science, particularly anatomy, natural sciences and optics.
