EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a meticulous sketch of the Bell Tower at New College, Oxford. Created by the talented artist Edmund Hort New in 1908, this pencil drawing beautifully captures the intricate details of the tower's leaded roof. The sketch provides a fascinating glimpse into the architectural marvels of New College, with its castellated design and Gothic influences. The turret stands tall against the sky, adorned with crenellations that add an air of grandeur to its medieval charm. What makes this print even more intriguing are the annotations and notes scattered across it. These markings reveal that this sketch served as a preparatory drawing for a birds-eye view illustration of New College published in 1908 and again in 1928. They provide valuable insights into how artists meticulously plan their compositions before bringing them to life. As you study this print, you can't help but appreciate both the artistic skill behind it and its educational value.
