EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled "View of Harvard College, Boston," is an early 19th century depiction of one of America's most prestigious institutions of higher learning. Created by the Italian artist Sasso for Giulio Ferrario's "Ancient and Modern Costumes of all the Peoples of the World," published in Florence, Italy in 1837, this illustration offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image captures the picturesque campus of Harvard College, nestled amidst the rolling hills and verdant foliage of New England. The college buildings, with their red brick facades and white columns, stand proudly against the clear blue sky. Students in period attire are shown strolling along the cobblestone paths, engaging in animated discussions or simply enjoying the beauty of their surroundings. Harvard College, founded in 1636, is the oldest institution of higher learning in the United States. Its early history is marked by a commitment to academic excellence and a dedication to the pursuit of knowledge. This engraving serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Harvard College and the intellectual vitality of early 19th century America. The intricate details of the engraving, from the individual leaves on the trees to the ornate architectural features of the buildings, are rendered with remarkable skill and precision. The use of handcolouring adds a richness and depth to the image, bringing the scene to life in a way that a black and white reproduction could not. This view of Harvard College offers a unique perspective on the past, inviting us to explore the history and traditions of one of America's most revered institutions. It is a reminder of the power of art to transport us to another time and place, and to deepen our understanding of the world around us.
