EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured engraving captures the essence of academic life at Emmanuel College, Cambridge University in the 19th century. The image showcases a distinguished pensioner and fellow commoner, both donned in traditional sub fusc attire, complete with mortar boards and elegant gowns. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable; every fold of fabric and intricate design on their clothing is brought to life through skilful engraving techniques. It's as if you can almost feel the texture of their garments just by looking at it. This illustration was originally created for "The Costumes of the Members of the University of Cambridge" by H Hyde around 1850, providing an invaluable glimpse into the fashion and style prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back to a time when education was revered and celebrated. The students depicted here exude an air of intellectual curiosity and ambition, symbolizing the pursuit of knowledge that has been synonymous with Cambridge University throughout its rich history. Whether you have a personal connection to Emmanuel College or simply appreciate fine art depicting academia, this enchanting print serves as a timeless reminder of the traditions and customs that continue to shape our educational institutions today.
