EDITORS COMMENTS
Magdalen College and Tower, Oxford, 1853" is a captivating work of art by George Pyne, showcasing the picturesque beauty of Magdalen College and its iconic tower in Oxford, England. This exquisite drawing was created in the nineteenth century using graphite and watercolor on cream wove paper. The scene transports us back in time, with the College's ancient stone walls and intricate architectural details standing proud against a backdrop of lush greenery. The towering structure of Magdalen College, founded in 1458, dominates the composition, its Gothic architecture a testament to the rich history of Oxford University. The college's gardens are in full bloom, with vibrant flowers and trees adding a splash of color to the monochromatic scene. In the foreground, a group of men and women, dressed in Victorian attire, engage in leisurely activities, adding a sense of life and energy to the drawing. Children play amongst the trees, their innocent joy contrasting with the grandeur of the College. Pyne's masterful use of graphite and watercolor creates a stunning interplay of light and shadow, with the sun casting dappled patterns on the College grounds. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the College's windows, the delicate branches of the trees, and the textures of the clothing worn by the figures. This print invites us to explore the heritage and traditions of Oxford University and offers a glimpse into the past. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to hold this beautiful work in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the artistry and historical significance of George Pyne's "Magdalen College and Tower, Oxford, 1853.
