(1790–1868) Collector of ancient and modern glass (now in the British Museum) who also had a lasting effect on British education in the fine arts. A bequest in his will endowed Slade professorships at Oxford and Cambridge and at University College in London. An added endowment of six art scholarships at University College led to the establishment of the *art school named after him.
