Portraits of LMH | Who will you nominate?

Portraits of LMH is an exhibition of photographs currently displayed in the College’s Deneke Corridor. Together, the portraits tell a story about the people who have shaped the life and character of the College and the world around them. As we approach the 150th Anniversary of LMH in 2028-29, we will expand the scope and size of the collection. We invite members of the community to help us tell the story of the College and its community by nominating subjects for our new portraits.

Make your nomination

Nominations for Portraits of LMH are now closed. The selection panel will meet later in 2026 to consider the nominations and select a shortlist. We look forward to sharing more about Portraits of LMH as we prepare to launch the expanded exhibition in 2028. 

Portraits of LMH

First installed in 2018 as a collection of alumni portraits, the exhibition has become a familiar part of College life - a space where the history of LMH is present in the everyday movement through the building. It serves as a source of inspiration to students, staff and visitors alike. 

As we approach the College’s 150th Anniversary in 2028-29, we are expanding the exhibition to include a broader range of individuals connected to LMH. This next stage reflects an intention to represent more fully the many different ways people contribute to the College community.

A living record of the College

As Portraits of LMH continues to evolve, we want it to reflect not only academic or professional achievements, but also impact in areas such as teaching, service, care, leadership and creativity, giving a rich and varied impression of the people who have passed through LMH over the years.

Each portrait will add to a collective record of LMH and its people - one that is still growing and being shaped.

Help shape the collection

We invited members of the LMH community to nominate individuals or groups for inclusion in the expanded exhibition. This was an opportunity to recognise those who have made a meaningful contribution to College life, or to the world outside our walls, in whatever form that may take.

All submissions will be reviewed by a curatorial panel drawn from across the College community, including Fellows, staff, students, and alumni. The panel will consider all submissions and decide which nominations are taken forward for inclusion in the exhibition.
