EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1923, showcasing the magnificent Brasenose College in Oxford, England. Founded over four centuries earlier in 1509 by Sir Richard Sutton and Bishop William Smyth of Lincoln, this prestigious institution has stood as a symbol of excellence in education for generations. The image captures the grandeur of Brasenose College's facade, displaying its impressive architectural design that seamlessly blends elements from both the 16th and 20th centuries. The monochrome composition adds an air of nostalgia to the scene, evoking a sense of timelessness. Interestingly, this particular print is part of a series called "Sunripe Cigarettes - A Series of 50 Public Schools and Colleges" produced by R. & J. Hill Ltd. in London during that era. Although smoking was once associated with sophistication and leisurely pursuits like education, it is important to note that we do not endorse or promote any commercial use related to tobacco products. As we gaze upon this vintage photograph, we are reminded not only of the rich history encapsulated within Brasenose College but also how far our educational institutions have come since then. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy these esteemed establishments leave behind while inspiring future generations to pursue knowledge and academic excellence.
