EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the 19th century, capturing the timeless beauty of St Johns College's Inner Quadrangle in Oxford. The image, taken by an English photographer whose name remains unknown, is a testament to the artistry and skill of early photography. The Inner Quadrangle stands as a historical landmark, steeped in rich history and academic tradition. Its grand architecture and intricate details are beautifully showcased in this print. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, enhancing our appreciation for the craftsmanship that went into constructing this magnificent structure. This particular print belongs to a private collection, adding an air of exclusivity and rarity to its allure. It was featured as an illustration in "Sights and Scenes in Oxford City and University" a book written by Thomas Whittaker around 1895. This publication aimed to capture the essence of Oxford's charm through vivid descriptions accompanied by stunning visual representations like this photograph. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how far photography has come since then. Bridgeman Images has preserved this precious snapshot from the past with utmost care, allowing us all to appreciate its significance today.
