Oxford

Today we were off to Oxford. I took a few photos around the city.

 

 

 

 

 

 

But most of our time was spent at the excellent Ashmolean museum. We were treated to several samplers not on public display. Unfortunately, due to the large size of most of the samplers and the bright overhead florescent lights, photography was really difficult so I wll have to post the pictures in pieces.

The next five are of a stumpwork casket.

These next four were in the public part of the museum.

 

This first one is part of a man's waistcoat.
