EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Magdalen College, Oxford, from Oxonia Illustrata" takes us back in time to the year 1675. The intricate details of this print by David Loggan transport us to the heart of one of Oxford's most prestigious institutions. Magdalen College, founded in 1448 by William of Wayneflete, Bishop of Winchester, is beautifully depicted here with its stunning architecture and serene surroundings. The image showcases the grandeur and elegance that has made Magdalen a symbol of academic excellence for centuries. The library stands tall and proud, while the cloisters invite us to wander through their peaceful corridors. The great tower dominates the skyline as a testament to Gothic craftsmanship. A cartouche adorns the scene with its ornate design, adding an extra touch of sophistication. From this aerial perspective, we can appreciate the carefully planned layout of Magdalen College's quadrangle or quad. Its perfectly symmetrical arrangement creates a harmonious atmosphere that inspires learning and contemplation. The chapel stands at the center stage with its majestic spires reaching towards the heavens. It serves as a reminder not only of religious devotion but also as a beacon for intellectual pursuit within these hallowed walls. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving from centuries past, we are reminded that Magdalen College continues to be an enduring symbol of knowledge and tradition in Oxfordshire.
