EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Winchester College: Back of Wickhams" takes us on a journey back in time to the 19th century. The print showcases the historic Winchester College, one of England's most prestigious public schools, nestled within its picturesque surroundings. The image focuses on the back view of Wickhams, a building that holds great significance within the college's rich history. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported into an era where education was highly valued and boys eagerly pursued knowledge within these hallowed halls. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every brick and stone seems to come alive with stories from generations past. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Winchester College and its contribution to shaping young minds for centuries. This print originally appeared as an illustration in H. C Adams' renowned book "Wykehamica: A History of Winchester College and Commoners". Its inclusion in this publication further solidifies its importance as a historical document capturing not only the physical beauty but also the educational ethos that defines Winchester College. As we admire this piece, it evokes feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about those who once walked these grounds. It stands as a testament to the power of education and reminds us that institutions like Winchester College have played an integral role in shaping our society throughout history.
