Essentials in architecture : an analysis of the principles & qualities to be looked for in buildings
An architectural primer by John Belcher, published by B.T. Batsford in London in 1907, setting out principles of proportion, mass and detail for students and practising architects. Halftone photographs and line drawings show Italian Renaissance palazzi, English country houses, colonnaded market halls and street façades, useful for window rhythms, cornice profiles and plain rusticated wall textures.
