National Heritage Week 2023
NUI Chancellor Portrait Gallery
National Heritage Week runs from 12-20th August 2023, and this time of year always gets us thinking about the treasures that we have at 49 Merrion Square.
This year, we thought we might tell you a little bit about our portrait gallery of NUI chancellors, as well as the artists who painted them. Our five chancellors have lead NUI through more than a century of revolution and innovation, of war and peace. It is impactful to think of how buildings like No.49, and institutions like NUI, have withstood these times and remain today as strong as ever.
