The column and the arch : essays on architectural history
Essays on architectural history by the American architect and critic William Pitt Preble Longfellow, published in London by Sampson Low, Marston & Co. in 1899 for architects and students tracing classical columns and Roman arch construction. Halftone photographs, printed sideways on the page, show church interiors, domes, colonnaded courtyards and ruined Roman masonry in soft grey tones useful for textured architectural backgrounds.
