EDITORS COMMENTS
This bird's-eye view print of Emmanuel College in Cambridge University, England, dating back to 1690, offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical layout of this esteemed educational institution. The image, showcased in exquisite detail through Mary Evans Prints Online, reveals the college's impressive architectural features and the lush greenery that surrounds it. At the heart of the college, the Chapel stands proudly, its Gothic Revival architecture a testament to the institution's rich history. Adjacent to it lies the Dining Hall, where scholars once gathered for communal meals and intellectual discourse. The College Library, a significant intellectual hub, is also depicted, lined with books and scholars engrossed in their studies. The Deans Lodgings, a grand residential complex, can be seen to the north of the Quad, while the gardens, a tranquil oasis, sprawl out to the east. The print also reveals the presence of a Brewery, which supplied the college with beer, a staple of the English diet at the time. An intriguing area, labeled as 'Real Tennis or Le Jeu de Paume,' is situated to the south of the Quad. This open-air space was used for the popular medieval game of real tennis, a precursor to modern tennis, which was a favorite pastime among the scholars and nobility of the time. The tree-lined avenue, leading to the college from the north, adds to the picturesque beauty of the scene. This enchanting print provides a unique window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life and academic pursuits of Emmanuel College over three centuries ago.
