Medieval architecture, its origins and development, with lists of monuments and bibliographies

Porter, Arthur Kingsley, 1883-1933 · 1909 · New York, The Baker and Taylor Company · 132 pictures

A two-volume architectural history by Arthur Kingsley Porter, published in New York in 1909 for students and scholars of medieval building, with monument lists and bibliographies. Halftone photographs and measured plates record Romanesque and Gothic churches: tracery-filled facades, nave arcades receding in perspective, carved capitals, and spiral piers — useful for stone texture, arch profiles, and ornament detail.
