Description
Princeton Tiger I ~ Fine Art Photograph by Colleen Kammerer ~
College Campus Collections:
This stately Bronze Tiger at the entrance of Nassau Hall, Princeton, NJ, shows off its wonderful aged green patina. The tiger emerged as a symbol of Princeton, ironically, not long after Woodrow Wilson's class, at its graduation in 1879, gave the University a pair of lions to guard the main entrance to Nassau Hall. In 1911, with the tiger firmly established as the Princeton symbol, the class of 1879 substituted A.P. Proctor's bronze tigers for the lions that had flanked the front steps of Nassau Hall. Several tigers can be found lounging in the sunshine around campus, including this one by A.P. Proctor in front of Nassau Hall.
