EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created by the skilled hand of English engraver John Loggan in 1675, offers a breathtaking bird's-eye view of Pembroke College in Oxford, England. Established in 1624, Pembroke College is one of the younger colleges in the prestigious University of Oxford. The meticulously detailed image showcases the college's architectural grandeur and the harmonious blend of its various structures. At the heart of the composition lies the Chapel, a magnificent edifice that serves as the spiritual center of the college. Adjacent to it is the Dining Hall, where scholars once gathered for communal meals and intellectual discourse. The Library, a treasure trove of knowledge, is also depicted, housing countless volumes that fueled the curiosity and learning of generations of scholars. The engraving also reveals the College's beautiful gardens and grounds, which offer respite from the scholarly pursuits within the walls. The tranquil greenery contrasts beautifully with the formal architecture, creating a harmonious balance. The Bell Tower, a prominent feature of the college, can be seen rising above the other structures, its bells tolling the hours and marking the passage of time. This engraving is one of 39 such views of Oxford Colleges that Loggan produced, each a testament to his artistic prowess and the historical significance of these esteemed institutions. A glimpse into the past, this image invites us to explore the rich history of Pembroke College and the University of Oxford.
