Trinity Bridge, Cambridge
Albumen print of a photograph, circa 1850 Mounted to board and inscribed 'Trinity Bridge Cambridge'. Trinity Bridge is a stone built tripled-arched road bridge across the River Cam. It was built from Portland stone in 1765 to the designs of James Essex to replace an earlier bridge built in 1651, and is a Grade I listed building. Trinity College is a constituent college of the University of Cambridge, and was founded in 1546 by King Henry VIII. Trinity is one of the oldest and largest colleges in Cambridge, with the largest financial endowment of any college at either Cambridge or Oxford. Trinity has some of the most distinctive architecture within Cambridge, with its Great Court reputed to be the largest enclosed courtyard in Europe. Condition: generally very good.

David Loggan (1634 - 1692)
Trinity College, Cambridge (1690)
Engraving 80 x 50 cm Loggan was born to English and Scottish parents, and was baptised in Danzig in 1634. After studying engraving in Danzig with Willem Hondius (1598-1652 or 1658), he moved to London in the late 1650s, going on to produce the engraved title-page for the folio 1662 Book of Common Prayer. He married in 1663 and moved to Nuffield in Oxfordshire in 1665. Loggan was appointed Public Sculptor to the nearby University of Oxford in the late 1660s, having been commissioned to produce bird’s-eye views of all the Oxford colleges. He lived in Holywell Street as he did this. The 'Oxonia Illustrata' was published in 1675, with the help of Robert White (1645 - 1704). Following its completion, Loggan began work on his equivalent work for Cambridge; the 'Cantabrigia Illustrata' was finally published in 1690, when he was made engraver to Cambridge University. The 'Oxonia Illustrata' also includes an engraving of Winchester College (Winchester and New College share William of Wykeham as their founder) whilst the 'Cantabrigia Illustrata' includes one of Eton College (which shares its founder, Henry VIII, with King’s College). Bird’s-eye views from this era required a particular talent as an architectural perspectivist; it was not until 1783 that it became possible for artists to ascend via hot air balloons and view the scenes they were depicting from above. Loggan thus had to rely on his imagination in conceiving the views. Loggan’s views constitute the first accurate depictions of the two Universities, in many ways unchanged today. Whilst the Oxford engravings were produced in reasonable numbers and ran to a second edition by Henry Overton (on thicker paper and with a plate number in Roman numerals in the bottom right-hand corner), those of Cambridge were printed in much smaller numbers. The Dutchman Pieter van der Aa published some miniature versions of the engravings for James Beverell’s guidebook to the UK, 'Les Delices de la Grande Bretagne' (circa 1708). The contemporary artist Andrew Ingamells has produced a highly-acclaimed series of etchings which bring Loggan’s original vision up to date. Condition: generally very good; printed on two sheets, folds as issued. A few creases to top area. As a multi-folded plate in the published book, Trinity has normally suffered and is normally trimmed closely and has damage; this particular example has instead good margins outside the platemark and without damage to the folds. A very good copy of Trinity. If you’d like to know more, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056. -
Wilfred Pettitt (1904 - 1978)
Great Court, Trinity College, Cambridge
Watercolour 17 x 27 cm A smartly-dressed couple and their two children enjoy the sunny and immaculately-lawned Great Court of Trinity College, Cambridge. The man and woman admire the ornate fountain which stands sentinel in the middle of the court (it, along with the rest of Great Court, was erected by by Thomas Nevile, master of the college in the early 17th century). Their children, perhaps oblivious to the architectural majesty around them, amuse themselves by playing with the pigeons. Wilfred Stanley Pettitt was born in Great Yarmouth, and studied at the Great Yarmouth School of Art and the Norwich School of Art. In 1928 he showed at the Royal Academy Royal Academy for the first time, and his work was also exhibited by the Royal Society of British Artists and the Royal Cambrian Academy. In 1944 Pettitt became one of the founding members of the Norwich Twenty Group (a group of Norfolk artists who intended to raise the standards of local professional art). He died in Eastbourne in 1978. Condition: mounted to board; otherwise very good. If you are interested, please email info@manningfineart.co.uk or call us on 07929 749056.
