?内容简介——

牛津是欧洲建筑的瑰宝之一。这座城市备受喜爱，游客众多，汇集了几个世纪以来无与伦比的英国建筑精华。

马修-赖斯的《牛津手绘插图集》是一场盛宴，书中有令人愉悦的水彩插图和翔实诙谐的文字，解释了这座城市是如何形成的，以及今天需要注意的事项。

虽然重点放在建筑细节上，但赖斯描述了这座城市是如何被其历史、地形和地质所塑造的，但重要的是被一代又一代的赞助人所塑造的，这些赞助人拥有教育和资源，可以委托当时伟大的建筑师和建筑工人进行创作，其中令人惊叹的作品至今仍屹立不倒。

从中世纪到当代，本书涵盖了所有标志性建筑，如拉德克利夫照相机、谢尔登剧院和学院四边形建筑，以及您可能会错过的独特细节。

与英国其他地方相比，在牛津只需漫步于今天的街道、小巷、公园和草地，就能领略英国建筑的历史。

Discover Oxford, one of the jewels of European architecture. Much loved and much visited, the city offers an unparalleled collection of the best of English building through the centuries.

Matthew Rice's Oxford is a feast of delightful watercolour illustrations and an informed and witty text, explaining how the city came into being and what to look out for today.

While the focus is on architectural detail, Rice describes how the city has been shaped by its history, topography and geology, but most of all by generations of patrons who had the education and the resources to commission work from the greatest architects and builders of their day, an astonishing range of which still stands.

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.

More than anywhere else in England, it is possible in Oxford to take in the history of English architecture simply by walking today's streets, lanes, parks and meadows. This book is the perfect guide.
