EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the chaotic yet exhilarating atmosphere of the end of term in a college dormitory. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The scene depicts a group of schoolboys engaged in a lively pillow fight, their high spirits evident as feathers fill the air. The corridor is filled with laughter and excitement as these students release their pent-up energy before departing for their well-deserved break. It's reminiscent of childhood mischief and camaraderie, evoking memories of carefree days spent with friends. The composition showcases the timeless essence of boarding school life, where friendships are forged amidst shared experiences and challenges. The postcard format suggests that this image was once sent to loved ones or kept as a cherished memento. In this snapshot frozen in time, we catch a glimpse into the world behind closed doors - away from classrooms and textbooks - where children engage in playful battles against one another. This photograph not only documents an end-of-term tradition but also serves as a testament to youthful exuberance and the bonds formed during these formative years. Bridgeman Images has preserved this moment from history through its fine art collection, allowing us to relish in nostalgia while appreciating the artistry captured within this single frame.
