The School Gateway, 1898 - A Glimpse into the Rich History of Rugby School
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1898, capturing the iconic gateway of Rugby School in all its grandeur. Founded in 1567, this esteemed institution stands as one of Britain's oldest independent schools, steeped in academic excellence and tradition. The image showcases a castellated building exterior with an imposing entrance that exudes a sense of history. The lampposts lining the avenue add a touch of old-world charm while lighting up the path for students and visitors alike. In the foreground, we see a group of people going about their day; men conversing by the roadside, women strolling along with books in hand - perhaps literature from their studies at Rugby School. A horse-drawn carriage passes through the gateway, reminding us of transportation methods prevalent during that era. This snapshot beautifully captures both architectural beauty and street life from two different centuries - combining elements from both sixteenth-century origins and nineteenth-century England. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from "Our Own Country". Volume VI published by Cassell & Company Ltd. , London, Paris & Melbourne in 1898 - we are transported to another time when education was highly valued and public schools like Rugby played a pivotal role in shaping young minds. This print serves as a testament to our rich heritage and reminds us how far we have come while honoring those who laid strong foundations for future generations at Rugby School.
