EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the timeless beauty of Uppingham School in 1923. Nestled amidst nature, this historic British public school stands as a testament to centuries of education and architectural grandeur. Founded in 1584 by Robert Johnson, the Archdeacon of Leicester, alongside Oakham School, Uppingham has been shaping young minds for generations. The photograph showcases the stunning facade of the school building set against a backdrop of lush greenery. The century-old tree towering over the courtyard adds an air of tranquility to this educational institution. A long driveway leads up to the entrance, inviting students into a world where knowledge and growth flourish. Interestingly, this image was part of a series called "Sunripe Cigarettes - A Series of 50 Public Schools and Colleges" produced by R. & J. Hill Ltd. , London in 1923. Although smoking is depicted on the cigarette packet associated with this print, it is important to note that commercial use should not be mentioned. In black and white monochrome tones typical for its time period, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into Uppingham's rich history during Britain's early twentieth century era. As we admire this scene from yesteryears captured by The Print Collector29 at Rutland County Museum & Visitor Centre archives (TGN), we are reminded of how enduring institutions like Uppingham School continue to shape futures even after centuries have passed.
