Radcliffe Camera - PHOTOGRAPHER COMMENT

This panorama was taken from the northeast corner of the square that houses the Radcliffe Camera. The entrance to All Souls College is to the left of the Radcliffe Camera, and the front of Brasenose College is on the far side of the square to the right of the round building. The Radcliffe camera was just too tall to capture in totality in this panoramic image, but is clearly seen on the satellite view of the Google map of Oxford.

The Radcliffe Camera in Oxford was built between 1737and 1749 to house the Radcliffe Science Library using a £40,000 bequest from John Radcliffe, who died in 1714. The building was designed by James Gibbs in the English Palladian style and has become one of the most iconic buildings in Oxford and a very popular tourist attractions. The library has since moved and Oxford's Radcliffe Camera is now used as a series of reading room for the Bodleian Library. The Radcliffe Camera is not open to the public, and perhaps one of the best places to view this amazing building is from the tower of St Mary's church which stand just to the south of Radcliffe Square.
