Fine art photograph of the historic library at St John’s College, Cambridge University, a stellar example of 17th century library architecture. Fine art photography of the Old Library, St John’s College, Cambridge University presented as part of the large Illuminating Cambridge Libraries series. The historic library at St John’s was built in 1628 and nearly all of its original features are still in place. Some of the original hand-written catalogues have been preserved at the end of the bookshelves. Of particular interest are the historic book spines and thermometer (see ‘Thermometer‘ and ‘Books III‘ for examples).
This photographic collection of the Old Library at St John’s College Cambridge was made in 2017 and contains 58 images, a small selection of which are shown below and available as giclee prints in many sizes.
Archival Pigment Prints
Archival pigment prints are museum quality pieces made by the artist in her own studio. Paper is smooth matte, archival, 100% cotton, 308gsm Hahnemuhle FineArt Photo Rag fine art paper. Ink is high end pigment-based and long-lasting (the company claims 400 years!). Note prints will not show the watermark.
Due to the wide variety of screens, the colours on your screen may differ slightly from colours in the print. If you’re concerned, please get in touch first and I can send you a colour sample in advance.
Editioning
A5 and A4 prints are artist-printed and signed open editions (not limited).
A3 and A2 prints are also artist-printed and signed. Each of these prints is a numbered limited edition, out of 150 for each size. Note two Artist’s Editions of each size are retained by the photographer.

Framing
Frames supplied by the artist are as specified and shown above. The frames offered differ for each piece based on what the artist thinks will be a great frame for that particular piece. If you want a set of images framed in the same way, just get in touch to discuss requirement before purchase.
The artist prefers a wide 100mm mount for nearly each piece to allow adequate breathing room for the artwork.
