EDITORS COMMENTS
The First Commemoration at the University of Durham (engraving) captures a momentous occasion in the history of this esteemed institution. The print, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the grandeur and significance of this event. In this image, we are transported to the castle grounds of Durham University, where a vibrant procession is taking place. The scene is filled with energy as students and faculty members gather to celebrate their achievements and honor their alma mater. The engraving beautifully depicts various elements that make up this commemoration. From old Harrovians proudly wearing their varsity attire to boats gracefully gliding along the river, every detail adds depth and richness to the composition. The presence of a tugboat suggests that transportation played a crucial role in bringing people together for this special occasion. One cannot help but notice the sense of camaraderie and joy emanating from those present at this garden party-like atmosphere. As cricket matches unfold on one side, conversations buzz around like bees amidst blooming flowers. This historic print not only serves as a visual testament to Durham University's rich heritage but also reminds us of the importance of celebrating milestones collectively. It encapsulates both tradition and progress while inviting us to reflect upon our own journeys within academia or any other field.
