The Old Library of the Oxford Union – the debating society of Oxford University in England – was built in 1857 as the Society’s original debating chamber. A striking example of Victorian architecture, the interior is notable for a series of murals painted by the Pre-Raphaelites, including William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The murals depict scenes from the Arthurian legends, including Rosetti’s main work of ‘Sir Lancelot’s Vision of the Holy Grail’.
