How to judge architecture : a popular guide to the appreciation of buildings
Russell Sturgis's 1903 guide for American general readers, published in New York by Baker & Taylor, teaching laypeople to look at buildings through comparison of European and American examples. The 85 halftone plates show church facades, nave interiors with clustered piers and vaulting, palace courtyards and street elevations, grainy and high-contrast, useful for masonry texture, arcade rhythm and column-capital detail.
