EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured engraving captures a moment in time at Jesus College, Cambridge University. The image showcases a group of distinguished individuals known as Pensioners and Fellow Commoners, who were part of the academic community during the 19th century. Dressed in their traditional gowns and sub fusc attire, these scholars exude an air of intellect and refinement. Their mortar boards sit proudly atop their heads, symbolizing their dedication to knowledge and learning. The print is taken from "The Costumes of the Members of the University of Cambridge" by H Hyde, published around 1850. It offers us a glimpse into the rich history and traditions that have shaped this prestigious institution. As we admire this scene, it becomes evident that education has always been highly valued within these hallowed halls. The students are depicted with great respect for their pursuit of knowledge, while the teachers or dons stand tall as pillars of wisdom. This artwork serves as a reminder that universities like Cambridge have long been centers for intellectual growth and academic excellence. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty found within its walls but also the enduring legacy it continues to leave on generations past, present, and future.
