No. 52. Stonyhurst College, 1923
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the timeless beauty of this Grade I listed Roman Catholic independent school in Lancashire, England. The photograph, taken by an unknown creator as part of a series for Sunripe Cigarettes, showcases the architectural grandeur and historical significance of Stonyhurst College. Established in 1593 by Father Robert Persons, this prestigious institution has stood the test of time, bridging the gap between centuries and generations. The monochrome image transports us back to the 1920s when education was highly valued and revered. The photo depicts a serene scene with a rowing boat gently gliding on a lake adjacent to the college's magnificent building exterior. The reflection on the calm waters beautifully mirrors both history and progress. Intriguingly captured are background figures - men who may be students or staff members - adding depth to our understanding of life at Stonyhurst during that era. Their presence reminds us that education is not just about buildings but also about people shaping their own destinies. This vintage print serves as a testament to Britain's rich academic heritage while evoking nostalgia for simpler times. It invites us to appreciate both the natural surroundings and man-made marvels that make up this remarkable educational institution. As we gaze upon "No. 52. Stonyhurst College" we are reminded of how places like these have shaped countless lives over centuries, leaving an indelible mark on individuals and society as a whole.
