This is the Danby Gate, its front entrance. This gate was shot at during the Civil War— incredible! If it were up to me, every building would still be massively decorated like this today, with niches for statues, rusticated surfaces, and inscriptions. Unfortunately, all we have now is plain concrete and glass instead.<br/>#art #watercolors #grownostr #plebchain 2024-07-16T17:31:00Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0lgwwnsj27zu7gp8hf3u7gm3dkleh0h9q2au7wppplhlq35p6axczyz0tgksvlu0kde4utqtc7ns22dyysp6gfsdhu50ntq49dlk4yfyvyx8p4s2 <img src="https://image.nostr.build/a7e99ee7b374f5128d8e77020e414741b519993f697e29330808e0401b36ec47.jpg"> <br/><br/>New College is not new, at least since 1379, when it was founded. This must be one of my favorite streets of Oxford old center; It is the summer entrance of New College: on the left, the wall of the cloister and on the right the sharp turn under the archway that leads to Queen’s Lane.<br/>#art #watercolors #grownostr #plebchain 2024-06-25T07:08:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsqvt76v4yu5wcqfkdu74hdycgyx2488szjssrr8k46pxmcwqsy6nszyz0tgksvlu0kde4utqtc7ns22dyysp6gfsdhu50ntq49dlk4yfyvy98rfys <img src="https://media.nostrgram.co/i/f3/media_f30407fe9b646.jpg"> <br/><br/>On a beautiful day, I went to one of my favorite biking trails along the Thames to the Folly Bridge. I sat among geese and drew the view. Small cruise boats are generally parked here, and on the other side, the pub &#34;The Head of the River&#34; has a nice outdoor space. Halfway during the process, a goose approached me hissing. I didn&#39;t mind: I love geese. I hate swans, though.<br/>#plebchain #grownostr #watercolors #art #drawing 2023-05-22T17:07:11Z
