OXFORD (MATTHEW RICE) (HB)

By the author and illustrator of Rice’s Language of Buildings, this guide to the architecture of Oxford explains how the city came to be the way it is, and shows what to look out for, in delightful watercolour illustrations and witty text. Ranging from the medieval to the contemporary, the book covers all the iconic buildings, such as the Radcliffe Camera, the Sheldonian Theatre and the college quads, as well as the distinctive details that you might otherwise miss as you walk through Oxford’s streets, lanes, parks and meadows.
