EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created by the skilled hand of English engraver and draftsman, Robert Loggan in 1675, offers a breathtaking bird's-eye view of Jesus College in Oxford University. Established in 1574, Jesus College is one of the younger institutions in the prestigious university, but it has left an indelible mark on the academic world. The image reveals the college's architectural grandeur, with the Chapel, Dining Hall, Library, the Deans' Lodgings, and the formal gardens all meticulously depicted. The Chapel, a magnificent structure with its distinctive bell tower, stands proudly at the heart of the college, reflecting the spiritual foundation of this academic community. The Dining Hall, with its impressive arches and intricate details, speaks to the rich history of communal dining and academic discourse that has taken place within its walls. The Library, a testament to the pursuit of knowledge, is shown as a rectangular building with a red-tiled roof, housing countless volumes that have shaped the minds of generations of scholars. The Deans' Lodgings, a symbol of authority and administrative prowess, are also clearly visible, adding to the overall charm of this historic scene. The formal gardens, with their neatly trimmed hedges and meticulously laid out paths, provide a serene contrast to the bustling academic life of the college. This engraving, one of 39 such views of Oxford Colleges made by Loggan, offers a unique perspective on the history and beauty of Jesus College, providing a glimpse into the past and the enduring allure of Oxford University.
