EDITORS COMMENTS
This bird's-eye view print of Magdalen College in Oxford University, England, dates back to 1675. Created by the skilled engraver, Loggan, this is one of 39 engravings he made of various Oxford colleges. The meticulous detail in this historical image allows us to explore the architectural beauty and layout of the college during that era. The image showcases the college's impressive quad, with the chapel standing proudly at its heart. The chapel, a significant religious and academic center, is surrounded by the dining hall, library, the Deans' lodgings, the kitchen, and the gardens. The dining hall, a formal space for communal meals, is situated to the left of the chapel. The library, a repository of knowledge, is located to the right, with the Deans' lodgings, the residence of the college's senior administrative officer, situated towards the top left. The kitchen, an essential part of college life, is located towards the bottom left, while the gardens, a place for relaxation and recreation, are spread out towards the bottom right. The kitchen garden would have provided fresh produce for the college, while the formal gardens would have been used for leisurely strolls and academic pursuits. This print offers a unique perspective of Magdalen College, allowing us to step back in time and appreciate the history and architecture of this esteemed Oxford institution. The intricate details in the print, from the intricately designed roofs to the winding paths in the gardens, provide a glimpse into the daily life of students and scholars during the late 17th century.
