Radcliffe Camera, Oxford

The Radcliffe Camera, the Oxford University Library, stands in the Italian Mannerist tradition. The round, domed structure rests on a rusticated base; pairs of Corinthian half-columns animate the façade.

The picture shows a view of the Oxford's Radcliffe Square with the Radcliffe Camera.
