EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the grandeur of Brighton College in 1923. Established in 1845 by William Aldwin Soames, this prestigious boarding and day school has been a cornerstone of education in England for nearly a century. The photograph is part of the "Sunripe Cigarettes - A Series of 50 Public Schools and Colleges" collection, published by R. & J. Hill Ltd. in London. The image showcases the magnificent architecture of Brighton College's entrance, with its imposing facade standing tall against the backdrop of lush grounds. The monochrome composition adds to its timeless charm, transporting viewers back to the roaring twenties. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it's intriguing to note the presence of a cigarette packet within the frame—a subtle reminder that smoking was once intertwined with daily life and social activities. Brighton College's rich heritage is palpable through every detail captured in this black and white masterpiece—the intricate design elements on the building exterior speak volumes about nineteenth-century British craftsmanship. Preserved by The Print Collector, an organization dedicated to safeguarding historical images, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an era when public schools held immense importance in shaping young minds. With its blend of architectural splendor and educational significance, this print serves as both a testament to Brighton College's enduring legacy and a window into early twentieth-century Britain.
