EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the essence of Merton College in all its glory. The colour lithograph, created by Thomas Rowlandson in the 18th century, showcases his satirical drawing style and keen sense of humour. With a touch of wit and satire, Rowlandson brings to life the iconic Oxford college. The image is part of a collection featured in "Rowlandsons Oxford" by A Hamilton Gibbs, published in 1911. These beautifully printed reproductions allow us to appreciate famous 18th-century cartoons like never before. Merton College stands proudly amidst the picturesque landscape of Oxfordshire, Great Britain. Its architectural beauty is highlighted through this illustration, which transports us back to the XVIII century. The cartoon-like depiction adds an element of playfulness to this otherwise serious institution. It serves as a scathing satire on academic life while also offering a humorous take on British culture during that time period. As we gaze upon this early twentieth-century print with its vivid colours and intricate details, we are reminded of the rich history that lies within Merton College's walls. This artwork not only celebrates British heritage but also showcases the talent and skill of Rowlandson as an artist. Whether you're an art enthusiast or simply captivated by historical landmarks, this print will transport you into another era – one filled with laughter, intrigue, and admiration for both Merton College and Thomas Rowlandson's artistic brilliance.
