EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of the Sundial at Corpus Christi College in Oxford, Oxfordshire. Created by renowned artist Herbert Felton during the 1920s, this image showcases a stunning piece of architecture that has stood for centuries. Corpus Christi College was established in 1517 by Richard Foxe, the Bishop of Winchester, making it one of Oxford University's oldest institutions. The college's rich history is reflected in its Tudor-style buildings and intricate details, which are beautifully highlighted in this monochrome photograph. The sundial itself stands tall against a backdrop of ivy-covered walls and lush greenery, creating a harmonious blend between nature and man-made structures. Its elegant design is reminiscent of 16th-century craftsmanship, with pillars supporting an intricately carved column that holds the sundial plate. Herbert Felton's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural marvel but also the serene atmosphere surrounding it. The play between light and shadow adds depth to the image while capturing a moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Hutchinsons Britain Beautiful edited by Walter Hutchinson, we are transported back to early 20th-century England. It serves as a reminder of our country's rich heritage and reminds us why these historical landmarks continue to inspire awe today.
