EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cambridge Illustrated" takes us back to the enchanting world of Cambridge University in 1887. The engraving, created by Sydney Prior Hall, beautifully captures the essence of this prestigious institution and its rich history. In the foreground, we see rowers gracefully gliding through the calm waters of River Cam during the famous May Races. Their synchronized movements and unwavering determination reflect the spirit of camaraderie and competition that defines Cambridge's sporting culture. The architectural marvels that line Kings Parade come into view as our eyes wander towards the background. The old font chapel stands tall with its intricate details and Gothic charm, a testament to centuries of academic excellence nurtured within these hallowed halls. Amidst all this grandeur, St Peter's Church stands as a silent witness to countless generations passing through Cambridge's gates. Its timeless beauty adds an ethereal touch to this scene, reminding us of the deep-rooted traditions that continue to shape this esteemed university. A boat and tugboat gently glide past each other on their respective journeys along River Cam, symbolizing both transportation and progress. This image encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an enduring legacy that has shaped minds for generations. Bridgeman Images has masterfully preserved this historical gem from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand the magic and allure of one of England's most renowned educational institutions -
