Hoefnagel2.jpg (269186 bytes)

Hoefnagel, J. "Oxonium."  1575.  Original or early color. Image 18.9" x 7".  An excellent example of the earliest print of Oxford.  A framed (and greatly inferior) copy of this print was displayed last year at a London store for £2200! (Note that the color in the photo has been washed out somewhat by the camera's flash. The actual color of the print is absolutely outstanding. In fact, it is the best we have ever seen.)
