Painting Description
David Loggan's depiction of Corpus Christi College, Oxford, is a significant work of art that captures the architectural and academic essence of one of Oxford University's historic colleges. Created in the late 17th century, Loggan's engraving is part of his larger endeavor to document the esteemed institutions of Oxford and Cambridge through his detailed and precise illustrations. His work, "Oxonia Illustrata," published in 1675, includes a series of engravings that provide a visual record of the university's buildings, offering a glimpse into the architectural landscape of the period.
Corpus Christi College, founded in 1517 by Richard Foxe, the Bishop of Winchester, is one of the smaller colleges within the University of Oxford. Loggan's engraving of the college is notable for its meticulous attention to detail, capturing the layout and structure of the college as it stood in the 17th century. The illustration showcases the college's quadrangles, chapel, hall, and other significant buildings, providing a comprehensive view of the institution's physical environment.
Loggan's work is not only an artistic achievement but also an important historical document. It serves as a valuable resource for historians and scholars studying the architectural and social history of Oxford University. The precision and accuracy of Loggan's engravings make them a reliable source for understanding the development and changes in the university's infrastructure over time.
In addition to its historical significance, Loggan's depiction of Corpus Christi College reflects the artistic styles and techniques of the Baroque period. His use of perspective, attention to architectural detail, and ability to capture the grandeur of the college buildings are characteristic of the period's artistic endeavors. Through his work, Loggan has left a lasting legacy that continues to be appreciated by art historians, scholars, and the general public alike.
