EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the prestigious halls of Cambridge University in the 19th century. The image showcases a momentous occasion - the Cambridge University Mathematical Tripos Honours. In this historic gathering, we witness an assembly of brilliant minds, both male and female, who have excelled in their mathematical studies. Amongst them are notable figures such as Miss Edith H Cooke and Miss Ada Johnson from Girton College and Newnham College respectively, breaking barriers as women pursuing higher education. The focal point of the engraving is undoubtedly the bracketed senior wrangler, Mr W. F Sedgwick from Trinity College. His achievement signifies his exceptional performance in mathematics during this rigorous examination process. Surrounded by fellow scholars known as "wranglers" including Mr WS Adie, these individuals represent the crème de la crème of mathematical prowess at Cambridge University. The attention to detail captured by Bridgeman Images transports us into this significant moment in history. It allows us to appreciate not only the academic achievements but also highlights how far society has come in terms of gender equality within academia. This print serves as a reminder that knowledge knows no boundaries or limitations; it transcends time and empowers future generations to pursue excellence in their chosen fields.
