EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Bedchamber of the Black Prince, demolished about 1720" takes us back in time to a significant historical moment. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into the past that has long been lost. The image showcases the opulent bedchamber of the renowned Black Prince, which sadly met its demise around 1720. The room exudes grandeur and elegance with its intricate architectural details and lavish furnishings. One can only imagine the stories that unfolded within these walls. Commissioned as an illustration for Joseph Foster's book "Oxford Men and their Colleges" published in 1893, this engraving captures a pivotal part of Oxford University's history. It serves as a reminder of how even prestigious institutions like colleges undergo transformations over time. As we delve into this artwork, we are transported to an era where queens and kings walked these hallowed halls. The presence of royalty is palpable; it adds another layer of intrigue to this already fascinating piece. Preserved within private collections today, this engraving from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship involved but also provides valuable insight into our rich cultural heritage. It reminds us that history is not just confined to textbooks but can be experienced through art as well.
