An old engraving of Oxford, Oxfordshire, England, UK c. 1800. The city's famous university and many churches gave rise to it being described as the 'city of dreaming spires'. The dome is the Radcliffe Camera built in 1748. In the foreground, south of the city, is the River Thames with cattle grazing on the water meadows.
