EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century oil painting, titled "William of Waynflete" captures the essence of a remarkable man whose legacy still resonates today. Painted by Richard Greenbury, this portrait showcases William Patten, better known as William Waynflete (c. 1398-1486), an influential figure in English history. Waynflete's accomplishments were vast and varied. He served as Provost of Eton from 1442 to 1447, Bishop of Winchester from 1447 to 1486, and even held the prestigious position of Lord Chancellor of England from 1456 to 1460. However, his most enduring achievement lies in his role as the founder of Magdalen College and Magdalen College School in Oxford. In this three-quarter-length portrait, we see Waynflete depicted with utmost dignity and authority befitting a bishop. Clad in a flowing robe and adorned with a mitre hat, he holds a crozier—a symbol of his ecclesiastical power. His piercing gaze suggests wisdom gained through years of experience and leadership. The artist skillfully captures both the physical likeness and inner strength that defined Waynflete's character. The attention to detail is evident not only in the intricate rendering of his attire but also in the subtle nuances that bring life to his expression. As we admire this historic artwork courtesy of New College at Oxford University, let us remember William Waynflete for his immense contributions to education and spirituality during an era.
