Painting Description
David Loggan's depiction of New College, Oxford, is a significant work that captures the architectural and academic essence of one of the university's most historic colleges. Loggan, an eminent engraver and draughtsman of the 17th century, is renowned for his detailed and accurate representations of Oxford and Cambridge colleges. His work on New College is part of his larger project, "Oxonia Illustrata," published in 1675, which is a comprehensive collection of engravings showcasing the buildings and grounds of the University of Oxford.
New College, formally known as The Warden and Scholars of St Mary's College of Winchester in Oxford, was founded in 1379 by William of Wykeham, the Bishop of Winchester. It is one of the oldest and most architecturally significant colleges in Oxford. Loggan's engraving of New College is particularly notable for its meticulous attention to detail, capturing the Gothic architecture, the layout of the college buildings, and the surrounding gardens and quadrangles.
The engraving provides a valuable historical record of the college's appearance in the 17th century, offering insights into the architectural style and campus organization of the period. Loggan's work is highly regarded for its precision and artistic quality, making it an essential resource for historians, architects, and scholars interested in the history of Oxford University and its colleges.
In addition to its historical and academic value, Loggan's engraving of New College is also appreciated for its aesthetic qualities. The intricate lines and careful shading demonstrate Loggan's skill as an engraver and his ability to convey the grandeur and elegance of the college's architecture. This work remains an important piece of visual history, preserving the legacy of New College and its place within the broader context of Oxford's storied past.
