EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Doctor in Divinity" takes us back to the rich history of Oxford University. Engraved by J. Agar and published in R. Ackermann's History of Oxford in 1814, this hand-coloured engraving showcases the esteemed Thomas Uwins' artistic talent. The image portrays a distinguished man seated at a lectern, surrounded by books and symbols of knowledge. Dressed in traditional academic regalia, his scholarly gown exudes wisdom and authority. The theologian dons a mortarboard on his head, signifying his expertise in divinity. As we delve into the composition, we are transported to an era where academia reigned supreme. The intricate details captured by Uwins highlight the meticulousness with which he approached his craft. This print serves as a testament to the pursuit of education and intellectual growth that has been cherished throughout centuries within university walls. It reminds us of the countless scholars who have dedicated their lives to unraveling complex theological concepts and expanding our understanding of faith. Courtesy of New College, Oxford, this remarkable piece allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic brilliance.
