EDITORS COMMENTS
In this bird's-eye view print of Christ's College in Cambridge, England, dating back to 1690, we are transported back in time to the historic university campus. The meticulously detailed image showcases the college's architectural grandeur and the daily life of its inhabitants. At the heart of the college lies the majestic Chapel, a place of worship and reflection for the students and fellows. Adjoining the Chapel is the formal Dining Hall, where scholars would gather for communal meals and academic discussions. The long, elegant tables are set for a formal dining experience, reflecting the formal structure of university life during this period. To the left of the print, the Library stands proudly, a testament to the importance of knowledge and learning in the college. The quiet, contemplative space would have been filled with scholars poring over books and manuscripts, seeking wisdom and enlightenment. The Deans Lodgings and Garden can be seen towards the bottom right of the image. The garden would have been a place of relaxation and recreation for the college community, while the Deans Lodgings would have been the residence of the college's senior administrative officials. In the top right corner of the print, we can see the Kitchen and an area for playing "le jeu de paume," also known as real tennis. The kitchen would have been a hive of activity, with cooks preparing meals for the college community, while the tennis court would have provided a much-needed break from the rigors of academic life. This stunning print offers a glimpse into the rich history and daily life of Christ's College in Cambridge during the late 17th century. With its meticulous attention to detail and captivating perspective, it is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of education and university life in England.
