EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of St Edwards Grammar School in Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire. Taken by William Galsworthy Davie (1841-1915), this image showcases the architectural splendor of the school building, which is steeped in history. The photograph was featured in "Old Cottages, Farm-Houses, and Other Stone Buildings in the Cotswold District" by E Guy Dawber (Batsford, 1905). It offers a glimpse into early twentieth-century England and its rich cultural heritage. In this scene, we see a servant attending to her duties outside the school. Dressed as a housemaid, she adds an element of authenticity to the photograph. Her presence reminds us of the domestic staff who played vital roles in maintaining such grand buildings during that era. The photo evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when education institutions were not only centers of learning but also architectural marvels. The intricate stonework and attention to detail highlight the craftsmanship prevalent at that time. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness both history and art intertwine seamlessly. The contrast between light and shadow creates depth within each stone facade while emphasizing their enduring strength. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also its historical significance as it immortalizes an important chapter in British architecture and educational heritage.
