Bulletin
This bulletin was issued in 1886 at Rouen by the Amis des monuments rouennais, a society of Rouen friends of local monuments, for its members and readers interested in regional architecture. Its plates show Gothic church towers, a restored carved portal with lion-supported arms, a decorated Hôtel des Sociétés Savantes façade, and a run of foliate ornament strips, offering designers clear period models of Gothic stonework and Renaissance-revival decorative borders.
