Engraving Michael Burgher Pembroke College Oxford
Original antique copperplate Michael Burgher engraving of Pembroke College, Oxford. Domino Johann Haas Episcopo Bristoliensi Collegii Pembrochiani. Pembroke College is a constituent college of the University of Cambridge, England. The college is the third-oldest college of the university and has over seven hundred students and fellows. Physically, it is one of the university's larger colleges, with buildings from almost every century since its founding, as well as extensive gardens. This image illustrates the completed quadrangle, the original gateway tower in Renaissance classical style, the new Masters Lodgings, and the College gardens. Michael Burghers was a Dutch engraver, who settled in England on the taking of Utrecht by Louis XIV. He lived mostly at Oxford, and on several of his plates he added Academiae Oxon. calcographus after his name. From 1676 Burghers engraved the plates for the Almanacks of the University. His most esteemed prints are his antiquities, ruins of abbeys, and other curiosities. He also engraved several portraits and plates for the classics. Good condition, folded, tears and bumps on margins, foxing and dust staining. Country: UK. Year: 1700s. Designer: Michael Burgher. Size: 46 x 57.
