EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John Le Keux showcases the magnificent Proscholium to the Divinity School at Oxford University in 1836. The Divinity School, constructed between 1427 and 1483, stands as a testament to the Perpendicular style of architecture prevalent during that era. Its most striking feature is undoubtedly its elaborate fan vaulting and intricately designed bosses adorning the ceiling. As we peer into this monochrome image, we are transported back in time to a corridor filled with students immersed in religious education. The passageway leads us towards an impressive entrance framed by large windows that allow soft light to filter through. This architectural masterpiece serves as a symbol of knowledge and enlightenment within the hallowed halls of academia. The print not only captures the beauty of this medieval structure but also offers us a glimpse into British history during the nineteenth century. It reminds us of Oxford's rich heritage as one of Britain's premier educational institutions, where religion played a significant role in shaping young minds. John Le Keux's meticulous engraving skillfully brings out every intricate detail, highlighting both his talent as an artist and his passion for preserving historical landmarks on paper. With F Mackenzie's collaboration on this piece, their combined efforts have created a timeless work that allows us to appreciate the grandeur and significance of this iconic building for generations to come.
