The English house, how to judge its periods and styles

Sparrow, Walter Shaw, 1862- · 1909 · New York, J. Lane Co. · 85 pictures

A 1909 guide by Walter Shaw Sparrow, published in New York by John Lane, teaching readers to date and identify English domestic architecture by period and style. The plates are line drawings and halftones of manor houses, gatehouses and church-like facades, heavy on stonework hatching, mullioned and traceried windows, gables, chimneys and battlements, useful as building elevations, texture patterns and architectural detail motifs.
