Oxford's High Street, the broad curving thoroughfare that runs east from the old city center toward the Magdalen Bridge, is lined here with the honey-colored stone buildings and colleges that have defined the town since the medieval period. The High is often described as one of the finest streets in England, bordered by college gates, church spires and shopfronts that have stood for centuries. This color print, catalogued as number 10135 from a caption card with no recorded date, is worth studying for the way it captures the street's architecture and its steady pull of scholars, townspeople and visitors.
