A glossary of terms used in Grecian, Roman, Italian, and Gothic architecture
An illustrated architectural glossary published by John Henry Parker at Oxford in 1845, defining Grecian, Roman, Italian and Gothic building terms for antiquarians, architects and students. The wood engravings isolate single features against blank grounds — arches, piers, foliage capitals, apse vaults — drawn in fine hatching that reads as usable line art for spot illustration or diagram work.
