EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Marlborough College in 1923, a prestigious private boarding and day school founded in 1843. The institution was initially established with the noble purpose of providing education to the sons of the Clergy, later earning its qualification under the Royal Charter in 1845. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a group of young boys standing outdoors, their faces filled with curiosity and innocence. The architectural beauty of Marlborough College's facade is showcased against the backdrop of Wiltshire's stunning landscape. The century-old building stands tall, exuding an air of grandeur that reflects both its historical significance and commitment to education. A lamppost illuminates the scene while adding a touch of old-world charm. Interestingly, some boys can be seen holding cigarette packets from Sunripe Cigarettes - part of a series featuring public schools and colleges across Britain. This detail offers a glimpse into the cultural practices prevalent during that era. As we admire this vintage photograph captured almost a century ago, it serves as a reminder not only of Marlborough College's rich heritage but also highlights how education has evolved over time. It symbolizes an era when religion played an integral role in shaping young minds within educational institutions like these.
