Chinese architecture
Chinese Architecture is an 1890 study by the missionary scholar Joseph Edkins, published in Shanghai and London by Kelly & Walsh and Kegan Paul, Trench, Trübner for an English-reading audience interested in China. The only picture here is the title page, set in a spare classical letterpress layout with centred capitals, small caps, a rule ornament and a publisher's imprint block, offering a designer a model for restrained nineteenth-century title typography.
