EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the magnificent shrine of Bishop Foxe, the esteemed founder of Corpus Christi College, Oxford, located within Winchester Cathedral. The intricate details and grandeur of this religious monument are beautifully captured in this print by Essex. The shrine stands as a testament to Bishop Foxe's significant contributions to education and his unwavering commitment to the church. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported back in time to the 16th century when this remarkable structure was erected. The architecture is awe-inspiring, reflecting both British and German influences from that era. It serves as a symbol of unity between these two nations and their shared Christian values. Winchester Cathedral itself holds great historical significance as it served as the final resting place for many influential figures throughout English history. This engraving allows us to appreciate not only its architectural beauty but also its role as a spiritual sanctuary. Through Skelton's Pietas Oxoniensis, we gain insight into the rich history surrounding Oxford Founders and how their legacies continue to shape our world today. This print serves as a reminder of Bishop Foxe's enduring impact on education and religion in England. As we admire this artwork from Fine Art Finder, let us reflect on the profound influence that individuals like Bishop Foxe have had on shaping our society and inspiring future generations.
