James I Oxford Historical Pageant Pageants
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the Arrival of James I at the Oxford Historical Pageant in 1907. The image, taken by an English photographer from the 20th century, is now part of a private collection. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the grandeur and spectacle of the pageant as it unfolds. The city's historic streets serve as a backdrop to this extraordinary occasion, where both town and gown come together to celebrate their shared heritage. The arrival of James I marks a significant milestone for Oxford University and its illustrious history. As one of England's most influential monarchs, his presence adds an air of regality to the festivities. Dressed in period attire, he exudes power and authority as he steps foot into this vibrant scene. This photograph not only documents an important historical event but also serves as a visual testament to how pageants were celebrated during the early twentieth century. It offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when such elaborate spectacles were used to commemorate significant moments in local history. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time - immersed in the rich tapestry that is Oxford's past. It reminds us that our present is built upon centuries of tradition and legacy; each brick laid with purpose by those who came before us.
