On October 26th, 1954, a Museum of Near Eastern Archaeology opened in the Old Arts Building (modern Theological Hall), the home of Queen’s Theological College. This project reveals how the Museum came into being, a gallery of select items once included in the museum, and the context surrounding the sudden and tragic loss of such a culturally and educationally significant collection.

Stauffer Library is where, for many, the magic happens. Students, staff, and faculty, along with members of the community, use the building’s many spaces for research and study, to work together on projects and papers, and to gather in the shared experience of learning.

This virtual exhibit complements digital planning initiatives under way at Queen’s and in the Kingston community. For decades, we have been leveraging technologies to advance learning and research. Here we highlight just some of our interesting initiatives in the digital realm.

The Young Ladies’ Journal (1864-1920) is an illustrated periodical that was marketed specifically to a young, female, middle-class audience. Each month, the YLJ published several fashion supplements that were distributed with its regular magazine issues. These supplements feature illustrated fashion spreads, needlework design and crafting templates, and dress patterns that could be cut out and traced onto fabric. When viewed together, these supplements provide a powerful visual demonstration of the relationship between fashion and consumer culture.

The year 2014 marked the 125th anniversary of the appointment of James Cappon to the first Chair in English at Queen’s University.

Stereoscopic views, or stereo cards, consist of two photographs, taken from slightly different angles and mounted on card, that would appear three-dimensional when viewed through a stereoscope. Wildly popular in the mid 19th and early 20th centuries, they were an early mass medium that served a variety of social functions — ideological, aesthetic, or even spiritual — that have, thus far, received little scholarly attention.

The Kelmscott Chaucer was the last and greatest work to arise from the partnership between the British Arts and Crafts design reformer William Morris and the late Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Burne-Jones. Originally owned by Lawrence of Arabia, the tooled leather-bound edition in the Queen’s collection is one of only 48 of its kind. “A Pocket Cathedral” presents this remarkable work of art among contemporary Private Press books whose intricate design, hand craftsmanship and social message share the same Arts and Crafts sensibility.
