Oxford, con su silueta dorada de torres, agujas, cúpulas y torrecillas que se alzan sobre un exuberante entorno de prados y colinas, fue considerada por el poeta Keats la urbe más hermosa del mundo. El artista Graham Byfield, con su cuaderno de acuarelas, se pasea frente a las puertas de los colleges, recorre sus patios y jardines, atraviesa anchas calles y angostos callejones que conducen hasta grandiosos edificios ceremoniales y pubs medievales de gran personalidad. En el camino, apenas con algunos trazos de lapiz y pinceladas de color, captura escenas de la vida de los estudiantes y de la propia ciudad que se desarrollan en uno de los escenarios urbanos mas ricos del mundo.Todos los estilos arquitectonicos de Inglaterra estan ampliamente representados en Oxford y en muchos de sus colleges hay ejemplos de edificios goticos, georgianos y clasicos, uno a continuacion del otro. En pocas ciudades del mundo puede verse semejante despliegue arquitectonico en un area tan compacta, ideal para recorrerla a pie.Acompañando a las acuarelas y los bocetos, se incluyen observaciones y notas escritas a mano por el artista, junto a la entusiasta presentacion de Oxford, de su historia y de sus edificios que nos ofrece el historiador Roger White. Completa el libro un indice de lugares con informacion mas detallada sobre los edificios reproducidos en las ilustraciones.
