EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "College rooms" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a humorous glimpse into the life of an Oxford freshman. Created by Cuthbert Bede, this print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in his book "The Adventures of Mr Verdant Green An Oxford Freshman". The image showcases a typical college room filled with amusing decorations and details that reflect undergraduate life at Oxbridge. The scene is brimming with humor as we see a group of freshmen engaging in various activities. One young man can be seen smoking a pipe, adding an air of rebelliousness to the setting. Interiors are adorned with quirky ornaments and posters that add character to the space. A kettle sits on top of a stove, hinting at moments shared over cups of tea among friends. The atmosphere captured in this engraving perfectly encapsulates the vibrant energy and camaraderie found within university walls. Bede's depiction offers both entertainment and insight into the experiences faced by undergraduates during their time at college. With its funny undertones and cleverly crafted scenes, this print serves as a reminder that university life has always been filled with laughter, friendships, and memorable moments for students like Mr Verdant Green.
