EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the distinguished figure of Richard Fox (1448-1528), an English bishop and statesman, who played a pivotal role in the founding of Corpus Christi College in Cambridge during the late 15th century. Fox, who served as the Bishop of Winchester and Lord Chancellor of England, is depicted in his ecclesiastical robes, exuding an air of authority and wisdom. The photograph, taken over 100 years after his death, serves as a testament to Fox's enduring legacy in English history. Fox's connection to Corpus Christi College is deeply rooted in its founding. In 1515, he secured a royal charter from King Henry VIII to establish the college, which was intended to provide education for poor students. The college was officially inaugurated in 1517, and its foundation stone was laid in 1517, making it one of the oldest colleges in the University of Cambridge. Despite the passage of time, this photograph brings the past to life, allowing us to connect with the man behind the historical record. Fox's influence extended far beyond the founding of Corpus Christi College; he was a key player in the political landscape of his time, serving as Lord Chancellor from 1509 to 1517 and playing a role in the annulment of King Henry VIII's first marriage. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history of Cambridge University and the influential figures who have shaped its past. Fox's legacy continues to be felt within the hallowed halls of Corpus Christi College, where his portrait hangs as a reminder of the college's storied past and the men and women who have contributed to its enduring success.
