This print takes us back in time to the year 1856, capturing a significant moment in the history of New York University. The image showcases the annual commencement ceremony of the Medical department at NYU, held within the grand university chapel located in Washington Square. The scene is bustling with excitement as graduates, distinguished faculty members, and proud family members fill every corner of the chapel. The congregation represents a diverse mix of North American society - from middle-class citizens to upper-class elites. Their presence reflects both their commitment to education and their faith in Christianity, which played an integral role in shaping early American institutions. The contemporary wood engraving technique used to create this print adds a touch of elegance and nostalgia to the scene. Every detail is meticulously captured, from the intricate architectural features of the chapel to each individual's expression filled with anticipation for what lies ahead.
