EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of All Souls College and the bustling High Street in 1903. The vibrant colors, brought to life through lithography by John Fulleylove, transport us back to a bygone era. All Souls College, founded in 1438 by Henry VI and Henry Chichele, stands proudly at the heart of this scene. Its magnificent architecture is a testament to centuries of academic excellence and tradition. Adjacent to the college is the Codrington Library, an architectural gem funded by Christopher Codrington's generous bequest. This library has been a sanctuary for knowledge seekers within these historic walls. The street below is teeming with life as pedestrians navigate their way through the crowd. A horse-drawn cart adds an element of charm and nostalgia to this daily life scene. The spire towering above serves as a reminder of Oxford University's rich history and intellectual legacy. As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are reminded that while times may change, certain elements endure - like the enduring allure of English architecture and the vibrant energy found on university streets. This remarkable photograph from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of All Souls College and its place within Oxford's dynamic landscape during the early 20th century.
