The Approach from Slough, 1911 - A Glimpse into Eton College's History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the approach to Eton College from Slough in 1911. With its timeless charm, the image showcases a moment frozen in time, revealing an avenue lined with majestic trees that lead towards the renowned boarding school. The bricks used for constructing this prestigious institution were made right here in Slough, as highlighted by Sir H. C Maxwell Lyte in his book "A History of Eton College (1440-1910)". The unknown creator of this photograph beautifully encapsulates the architectural grandeur and historical significance of Eton College. Intriguingly, amidst the backdrop of this tranquil scene are background figures going about their day. These men add a touch of life to the otherwise serene atmosphere, reminding us that education is not just confined within these hallowed walls but extends beyond them into society. Eton College holds a special place in British history and literature. It has nurtured countless young minds over centuries and continues to do so today. This image transports us back to a time when education was treasured and sought after by those who had access to it. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving, we cannot help but appreciate how far we have come since then while acknowledging our indebtedness to institutions like Eton College for shaping generations past and present.
