EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the gathering of Vice-chancellor and students from various nationalities at the prestigious University of Prague in 1849. The image, taken from "Le Moyen Age et la Renaissance" by Paul Lacroix, Ferdinand Sere, and A Rivaud, Volume I (Paris, 1849), showcases the power of unity and togetherness within the realm of education. In this engraving, we witness a diverse group of scholars standing side by side with their vice-chancellor. Men from different backgrounds have come together under one roof to pursue knowledge and expand their horizons. This powerful visual representation symbolizes not only academic excellence but also cultural exchange and mutual respect. The significance of this historic meeting lies not only in its time period but also in its location - Prague, Czech Republic. As an epicenter for intellectual growth during the nineteenth century, it attracted individuals seeking enlightenment from all corners of the world. Through this monochrome portrayal captured by A Bisson Cottard for "The Print Collector" we are reminded that education has no boundaries or limitations. It unites people regardless of nationality or background towards a common goal: acquiring knowledge. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, let us celebrate the spirit embodied within these men who stood united as they embarked on their educational journey at one of Europe's most esteemed institutions - the University of Prague.
