EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the grandeur of Haileybury College in 1923, a prestigious British public school with a rich history. Established in 1862 and granted a Royal Charter in 1864, the college is housed within the magnificent buildings once owned by the Honourable East India Company. Designed by renowned architect William Wilkins, known for his iconic works such as Downing College, Cambridge and the National Gallery in London, this architectural masterpiece showcases a stunning dome atop its facade. The monochrome image evokes nostalgia for an era when smoking was prevalent, as it is part of Sunripe Cigarettes' series featuring prominent schools and colleges. However, let us focus on appreciating the historical significance rather than endorsing tobacco use. Set amidst picturesque grounds in Hertfordshire, Haileybury College stands as a symbol of excellence in education during the early 20th century. The sports field visible in the background reflects its commitment to holistic development. As we gaze upon this photograph from nearly a century ago, we are transported back to an era when private boarding schools like Haileybury shaped young minds while preserving traditions rooted deep within British culture. This print serves as both a testament to architectural brilliance and an homage to institutions that have played pivotal roles in shaping generations of scholars.
