A dictionary of the architecture and archaeology of the middle ages : including words used by ancient and modern authors in treating of architectural and other antiquities, also, biographical notices of ancient architects
John Britton's illustrated dictionary of medieval architecture and archaeology, engraved by John Le Keux and issued in London for antiquaries, architects and builders. Line engravings group Gothic and Romanesque details in numbered grids—pointed and round arches, clustered piers, carved capitals, buttresses and pinnacles—drawn with construction lines and hatched shadow, useful as clean architectural ornament for borders, frames and repeat motifs.
