EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving showcases the distinguished attire of a Doctor of Music and a Doctor of Civil Law from the 19th century. The print, part of a private collection, beautifully captures the elegance and prestige associated with these academic titles. The illustration was originally created for "The Costumes of the Members of the University of Cambridge" by H Hyde in approximately 1850. It offers us a glimpse into the sartorial traditions upheld at Cambridge University during that era. In this image, we see two individuals adorned in their formal gowns and mortar boards, representing their esteemed positions within academia. The intricate details on their clothing reflect both tradition and fashion prevalent at that time. This print not only serves as an artistic representation but also provides valuable insight into the rich history and culture surrounding higher education institutions like Cambridge University. It reminds us of the importance placed on knowledge, learning, and scholarly achievements throughout generations. As we admire this engraving from Bridgeman Images' Valerie Jackson Harris Collection, we are reminded of how clothing can symbolize status and expertise while preserving age-old customs. This piece is a testament to the enduring legacy carried by teachers, students, and colleges alike within prestigious educational establishments such as Cambridge University.
