Architecture civile et domestique au moyen âge et à la renaissance:

Verdier, Aymar, 1819-1880 · 1855 · Paris, V. Didron · 13 pictures

Architecture civile et domestique au moyen âge et à la renaissance is a folio of measured architectural plates by Aymar Verdier, published in Paris by V. Didron in 1855 as a study of medieval and Renaissance civil and domestic building. The plates show elevations, arcade bays, carved mouldings and a Gothic gable with rose window, drawn in fine line for architects and craftsmen. A designer could draw on the ornament details, such as foliate capitals, cusped tracery and pointed arches, for period-appropriate decorative motifs.
