Small French buildings; the architecture of town and country, comprising cottages, farmhouses, minor chateaux or manors with their farm groups, small town dwellings, and a few churches
An architectural survey of French vernacular building published by Scribner's in New York in 1921, compiled by American architects Lewis A. Coffin, Henry M. Polhemus and Addison F. Worthington for practitioners seeking provincial models. Halftone photographs and measured plans record cottages, farm courtyards, small manors and village churches in high-contrast grey, useful for roof silhouettes, dormer and shutter details, and stonework texture.
