EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive brass effigy of Thomas Hylle, a renowned figure from the 15th century. Crafted by an English School artist, this artwork is now housed at New College, Oxford and graciously shared with us by the Warden and Scholars. Thomas Hylle was a distinguished Professor of Sacred Theology at New College, Oxford, leaving behind a profound academic legacy. This full-length depiction captures his scholarly essence as he stands proudly in his intricate robes and holds a scroll symbolizing knowledge and wisdom. The beautifully detailed floor beneath him features an ornate cross, emphasizing his religious affiliation and dedication to sacred studies. The inscription accompanying the effigy adds depth to our understanding of this remarkable individual's life and achievements. With its skillful inlay work and textural stone background, this portrait exudes both elegance and gravitas. A banner gently drapes over Hylle's tomb, further honoring his memory as a respected scholar. As we gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness the solemnity of academia during the 15th century. It serves as a reminder of the rich history that lies within educational institutions like New College while paying homage to individuals who have shaped our intellectual landscape for centuries to come.
