Description: The Gordon Fraser card from Oxford University College features the Shelley Memorial, dedicated to the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. Shelley attended University College in 1810 but was expelled in 1811 for his controversial writings. The memorial, created by Onslow Ford, depicts an idealized image of Shelley, who tragically died in a boating accident off the Ligurian coast. His body, identified by the books of Sophocles and Keats in his pockets, was buried near Keats's grave in Rome. This memorial holds significant cultural and historical value, symbolizing the life and legacy of a renowned poet. The photograph by Edwin Smith captures the essence of this memorial, showcasing the connection between literature, art, and history.
