Created by Cuthbert Bede in 1853, it serves as an illustration for his book "The Adventures of Mr Verdant Green An Oxford Freshman". The print showcases a group of enthusiastic undergraduates embarking on their journey to Oxford University. In this amusing scene, we see Mr Verdant Green and his fellow freshmen eagerly boarding a coach pulled by spirited horses.

This image perfectly encapsulates the vibrant college atmosphere that awaits these young scholars at one of England's most prestigious institutions.
