SUMMARY:ROMAN OXFORDSHIRE COINS DISPLAY
DESCRIPTION:6 Dec 2025 – 29 Nov 2026  \nGallery 7 \nAdmission is FREE \n\nCoinage remains one of the best represented and most recognisable elements of Roman material culture. \nThis display will showcase a selection of Roman coins in the Ashmolean collection that were found in Oxfordshire and tell the story of the region from the Roman conquest in 43 CE to the end of Roman Britain\, around 410 CE. \nSome of the coins reflect everyday life through trade\, soldiers’ pay\, or the collection of taxes. Others tell us about Britain’s position in the empire or served as offerings people made to the gods. \nDiscover a group of Iron Age gold staters buried in a flint nodule around the time of the Roman invasion\, known as the Henley Hoard\, and various Roman coins from Claudius I to the end of Roman Britain. These historic finds were discovered in local towns and villages\, such as Cowley\, Dorchester\, Asthall\, Horton\, Shiplake and Childrey\, and add to the evidence for coin use and circulation in Roman Oxfordshire. \n \nMap (detail) accompanying the Roman Oxfordshire coins display in the Money Gallery \n\n  \nRoman coins were an important means of communication. They were carried across the empire in purses\, spreading images and messages central to Roman society: religion\, politics\, the Imperial family\, or the empire’s prosperity. As with modern money\, most Roman coins also had more straightforward messages\, showing exactly who held power. \nThese coins are not always beautiful objects\, but each is a small\, powerful voice connecting us to the people of Roman Oxfordshire and their place in the wider Roman world. \nHeader image: Obverse and reverse detail of silver coin of Carausius © Ashmolean Museum \n\nFound anything locally? \nSince 1997\, the Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) has recorded more than 360\,000 Roman coins from England and Wales\, including nearly 15\,000 from Oxfordshire. \nIf you think you may have found a Roman coin\, it’s important to have it properly recorded. Contact your local Finds Liaison Officer at the PAS \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSELECTED OBJECTS ON DISPLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSilver coin of Carausius\n\n\n\n\nSilver coin of Roman Emperor Carausius\, found at Shiplake\, with a wolf and the twins Romulus and Remus on the reverse\, 286–293 CE © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCopper coin of Nero\n\n\n\n\nCopper coin depicting Nero\, found at Dorchester on Thames\, 65 CE © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHenley Hoard \n \n\n\n\n\nHenley Hoard \n\nHenley Hoard\n\n\n\n\nComplete local Iron Age coin hoard of 32 gold staters buried in a flintstone nodule\, found in Henley-on-Thames\, 55–45 BCE © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSilver coin of Arcadius\n\n\n\n\nSilver coin of Roman Emperor Arcadius\, found at Horton\, 392–394 CE © Ashmolean Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNext slide\nPrevious slide

SUMMARY:COLONIAL VIEWS OF INDIA
DESCRIPTION:FREE EXHIBITION\n\n\n\n\nOpens 11 Apr 2026 \nGallery 29 \nAdmission is FREE \n\nThis is the first exhibtion to focus on photographs and negatives in the Ashmolean\, and as such features previously unseen photographs of India by Colonel Eugene Clutterbuck Impey (1830–1904). \nA member of the East India Company\, Impey arrived in India in 1851 and took part in military actions during the Indian Uprising of 1857. After the British Crown took control in 1858 following the Uprising\, he worked as a political agent until returning to Britain in 1878. \n  \n \nStereoscopic image of a tiger with tripod shadow\, Colonel Eugene Impey\, 1858-1865\, albumen photographic print on paper © Ashmolean Museum \n\n  \nImpey’s photographs reflect British imperial interests\, showcasing portraits of colonial officers and Indians\, as well as staged scenes of daily life\, clothing\, religious sites\, animals\, and landscapes. \nThese images often reinforced stereotypes with the aim to justify colonial efforts. Photography\, which gained popularity after its debut in 1839\, was used to highlight cultural differences. From the mid-1800s British officials documented various social groups in India\, often categorising people by ethnicity. \nThe Impey collection includes 247 glass negatives preserved at the Ashmolean. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSELECTED PHOTOGRAPHS ON DISPLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSeated girl\n\n\n\n\n 1858-1865 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nQutub tower\n\n\n\n\n 1858-1865 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaharaja Takhat Singh of Jodphur\n\n\n\n\n1858-1865 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFour Rajputs with jezails and swords\n\n\n\n\n 1858-1865 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSnake charmer\n\n\n\n\n 1858-1865 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSmall temple and rope bridge in hilly landscape\n\n\n\n\n 1858-1865 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNext slide\nPrevious slide

SUMMARY:APHRODITE THE MAKING OF A GODDESS
DESCRIPTION:Step into the world of Aphrodite\, the Greek goddess of love\, beauty\, and desire – later worshipped by the Romans as Venus. \nToday she is thought of as a symbol of passion and beauty\, but her story is far older and more complex. \nThis major exhibition will explore Aphrodite’s beginnings on the island of Cyprus\, where she was worshipped as an all-powerful goddess over 3\,000 years ago\, and will trace her journey through the Greek and into the Roman world\, where she became Venus. \nThe exhibition will reveal how\, over the centuries\, Aphrodite evolved into an iconic figure symbolising love and beauty as her myths and images flourished – inspiring art\, literature\, and imagination from the Renaissance to the present day\, \nFeaturing more than 200 extraordinary objects – from sculpture and bronzes to gems and terracottas from Cyprus\, Greece\, and Italy\, dating back from around 1400 BCE to the 21st century – this exhibition will uncover the making of a goddess whose legacy still shapes our ideas of love and beauty today.

SUMMARY:LOVE ON PAPER STUDY ROOM VISIT 2
DESCRIPTION:Love-inspired prints & drawings of the Renaissance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMon 30 Nov 2026\, 11am-12pm OR 2.30-3.30pm \nChoose from the morning or afternoon session. \nThis talk is in-person only and takes place in the new Douce Study Room \nTickets are £20. Booking is essential. Book below \nMeet in the Randolph Sculpture Gallery 21 on the ground floor \n\nWith Bianca Arthur Hull\, Curatorial Trainee in Western Art \nThis is the second talk in our Love on Paper series where curators focus on prints and drawings in the Ashmolean’s collection to explore themes of love\, desire and romance. \nThis talk covers the Early Modern period of art history when love and desire were subjects both idealised and poeticised\, but also punished for their profanity. It will highlight especially the Renaissance fascination with antiquity and the nascent medium of printmaking. \nBianca will examine the ways in which key Renaissance artists like Dürer\, Michelangelo and Marcantonio Raimondi expressed themes of love and desire on paper\, in turn opening up new avenues for imagining the period through these small-scale\, fragile works. \n\n \nThe Triumph of Love\, Giulio Bonasone\, c. 1545 \n\n  \nThe Ashmolean’s superb collection of works on paper is rarely on display in the galleries. \nLove on Paper talk 1: 19th- & 20th-century artists is on 17 Nov \nPart of the Museum’s Love and Legacy season of events. \n\nBOOKING \nThis event takes place onsite in the Douce Study Room \nTickets are £20 and in-person only.
