EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in the year 1907, captures a breathtaking view of the historic Backs of the River Cam in Cambridge, England. The serene scene is dominated by the towering presence of St John's College, its distinctive Gothic Revival tower reaching out towards the sky in the distance. The Backs, a stretch of gardens and buildings along the River Cam, have been a source of inspiration for artists, poets, and visitors for centuries. The college, founded in 1511, is one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions in the University of Cambridge. Its rich history is reflected in the grand architecture of its buildings, which blend harmoniously with the natural beauty of the river and the surrounding greenery. The tower of St John's College, with its intricate carvings and ornate details, stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the past. The photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages, formal gardens, and elegant architecture. The tranquility of the scene is only interrupted by the occasional rowing boats gliding gracefully along the river, adding to the timeless charm of this iconic location. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a valuable historical document, capturing the essence of Cambridge's rich heritage and the enduring allure of its Backs. The image invites us to imagine the stories and secrets that lie hidden within the walls of St John's College and the surrounding gardens, making it a must-see destination for anyone visiting this historic city.
