An Ox in Oxford

We went to Oxford a few weeks ago, just a quick visit for a day. I like Oxford, but I seldom go there, even though it's not very far from where we live. I first visited it briefly back in the 80s, then when I was a uni student here I visited it a few times, but I mostly spent time on its university campus. We could definitely visit more often. So anyway, during our last visit I noticed this statue, The Ox, by Olivia Musgrave. An ox in Oxford. Or the Ox of Oxford? Be that as it may, it fits the city.

We have a painting of one on the kitchen-ceiling. Niece after 20 minutes: "COW!!!"
