The Old Royal Naval College and the beauty of its architecture continues to be a source of inspiration for artists today.
Take a look at this painting made on site by artist . Paula’s love for painting runs in the family. She was taught by her grandfather - who served in the royal navy and attended the Royal Naval College for 14 years. The piece, called ‘Sounds of Spring’, takes inspiration from the music you can often hear while walking around our site, coming from Conservatoire.
It’s stories like these that remind us why preserving our heritage, and keeping it alive for future generations to come is so important.
This year, as we celebrate 300 years of the Painted Hall, we want to hear your stories, memories and see your artistic creations. Find out more in the link in our bio.
