EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the breathtaking beauty and rich history of Christ Church College, a significant part of the prestigious University of Oxford. Originally established in 1525 by Thomas Wolsey, a prominent figure in Tudor England as Lord Chancellor and Cardinal Archbishop of York, the college was initially known as Cardinal College. However, its fate took a dramatic turn when King Henry VIII came to power in 1532. Henry VIII re-founded the college, renaming it as his own, and later, in 1546, it was re-established as Christ Church. The image showcases the late 19th-century elegance of this historic institution, with the impressive Tom Tower and the stunning Tom Quad, which is home to the Tom Quad Vaults, a unique series of underground rooms. The lantern slide, likely produced during the 1890s, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the grandeur and charm of Christ Church College as it stood over a century ago. Christ Church College is not only an architectural marvel but also an essential piece of British history. Its intriguing past, filled with royal patronage and religious transformation, adds to its allure and makes it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and architecture admirers alike. This photograph, taken during the late 19th century, serves as a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of Christ Church College in Oxford's storied academic landscape.
