David Loggan spent 12 years sketching & engraving the town & colleges of Cambridge before publishing his book of plates in 1690 as 'Cantabrigia Illustrata'. Background: museumofcambridge.org.uk/2025/

Loggan's views of Cambridge from the east, above, and the west, below. From the east, the foreground comprises ploughed fields, a flock of sheep, and huntsmen on foot and on horseback. From the west, across the river, the harvest is under way. Landmarks like the castle, colleges and churches are numbered and named. King's College Chapel stands out, as it does today.
