Macro Mondays am 30.05.2022 - Thema: Wappen Pin an Vorhang ;-D Originalgröße ca 15x18 mm from Wikipedia: History Despite its name, New College is one of the oldest of the Oxford colleges; it was founded in 1379 by William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester, as "Saint Mary College of Winchester in Oxenford",[5] the second college in Oxford to be dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The COAT of ARMS of the college is one adopted by William Wykeham. It features two black chevrons, one said to have been added when he became a bishop and the other representing his skill with architecture (the chevron was a device used by masons). Winchester College uses the same arms.
