Légende

The Fete in Exeter College Gardens, [Oxford], 1850. Party given by the Rev. W. Sewell, President of the Oxford Architectural Society, '...in the College Gardens, which were all thrown open and brilliantly illuminated. The good taste and elegance of this entertainment, combined with the various resources, both of nature and art, of which the donor of the feast was not slow to take advantage, rendered this fete most distinguee in character, and one that will long be remembered by the 800 or 900 guests who partook of Mr. Sewell's splendid hospitality'.
