Plymouth Brethren Christian Church The Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (PBCC) is a Protestant church, often known as Exclusive Brethren or Raven-Taylor-Hales Brethren. These Brethren hold an uncompromising 'separatist' doctrine and their practice has steadily evolved differently from other Plymouth Brethren groups and also from mainstream Christianity. In a radical departure from traditional Plymouth Brethren rejection of a clerical hierarchy, the PBCC has evolved into a tightly-controlled hierarchical organization dominated by one person known as the Elect Vessel or the Man of God. The current Elect Vessel is Bruce Hales of Australia. Most media reporting of "Exclusive Brethren" relates only to the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church although other branches exist.

British Institution The British Institution (in full, the British Institution for Promoting the Fine Arts in the United Kingdom; founded 1805, disbanded 1867) was a private 19th-century society in London formed to exhibit the works of living and dead artists; it was also known as the Pall Mall Picture Galleries or the British Gallery. Unlike the Royal Academy it admitted only connoisseurs, dominated by the nobility, rather than practicing artists to its membership, which along with its conservative taste led to tensions with the British artists it was intended to encourage and support. In its gallery in Pall Mall the Institution held the world's first regular temporary exhibitions of Old Master paintings, which alternated with sale exhibitions of the work of living artists; both quickly established themselves as popular parts of the London social and artistic calendar. From 1807 prizes were given to artists and surplus funds were used to buy paintings for the nation.
