EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Election Hall Screen at Eton College. Located in Eton, Berkshire, this prestigious boarding school for boys was established by King Henry VI in 1440. The screen itself was added to the college between 1514 and 1520, making it a remarkable piece of sixteenth-century architecture. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of the wooden screen, which stands as a testament to British craftsmanship from centuries past. The panelled design exudes elegance and sophistication, reflecting the rich history and tradition that permeates throughout Eton College. Within the frame, we see an exquisite table adorned with various objects and a wooden chair placed beside it. These elements provide insight into daily life within this historic institution dedicated to education. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to the image, transporting us back to the roaring twenties when this photo was taken by Christopher Hussey for Country Life magazine in London. As we gaze upon this stunning print, we are reminded of Eton's status as one of Britain's most renowned private schools. Its Grade I listed building status further solidifies its significance in architectural heritage. This print serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool for those interested in exploring British history through art and architecture.
