The Shelley Memorial is inaugurated at University College, Oxford, from which the poet was expelled in 1811. It is designed by Basil Champneys, with a reclining nude marble statue of Percy Bysshe Shelley by Edward Onslow Ford. Although Shelley was expelled from the college, he remains one of its most famous alumni and is now held in high honour there.
