Oxford
Louise Rayner Oriel College Oxford
Oxford unlike many of Louise's other towns has changed very little. Careful comparison of the modern photo with her painting show that she faithfully painted the scene in front of her (she however exaggerated the size of the Church Tower, but that's artistic licence). This may encourage us to believe that her other town views are also accurate.
