Norman keeps almost everything at one height, so what stands out is not how tall anything is but the two deep slots cut down the face of the block in the middle of it.
What is in the drawing
A pitched roof and a long low block open the left, with a slab behind them carrying two small pinnacles. A run of low rounded roofs follows, rising and falling like a wave along the ground line. The slotted block stands at the centre, the two cuts running most of its height. Low buildings fill the space beyond, and a wide building with a stepped crown closes the right above a scalloped front.
Who buys it
Students and alumni buy this, and so do the people who teach there. It sells heavily in August and again in May, and the mug outsells the canvas by a wide margin.
Mug or canvas
A frame of 2.578 to 1 wraps a mug. Ink is 0.055, on the light side, because the even heights leave little overlap and plenty of sky. The rounded roofs are the only repeated pattern and they are drawn large enough to survive reduction, so ceramic loses very little here.
