EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn beauty of the "Memorial to the members of New College, Oxford, who lost their lives during World War I". Created in 1921 by Eric Gill and his workshop, this stone monument stands as a poignant tribute to those brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice. The intricate lettering, meticulously designed by Gill himself and expertly cut by Joseph & Lawrence Cribb, adorns the memorial with names that will forever be engraved in history. Painted by David Jones, another member of Gill's workshop, each stroke of pigment adds depth and reverence to this commemorative artwork. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the profound impact that war had on not only New College but also countless other institutions around the world. The inscription serves as a powerful reminder of these graduates' unwavering honor and dedication. With its gold leaf accents shimmering against the stone backdrop, this memorial radiates both strength and vulnerability. It stands as a symbol not only for those who were lost but also for our collective duty to remember their sacrifices. In capturing this moment from Fine Art Finder's collection courtesy of New College Oxford's Warden and Scholars, we are transported back in time to an era marked by immense loss yet defined by resilience. This photograph allows us to pay homage to those who gave everything for their country during World War I while reminding us never to forget their legacy.
