Die restaurirte Reformirte Kathedral-Kirche zu St. Jacob in Cöthen : Aufzeichnungen und Erläuterungen zu den Baudenkmälern der Kathedrale

Beisser, W · 1876 · Cöthen : O. Schulze · 19 pictures

A German architectural record of the restored Reformed cathedral church of St. Jacob in Cöthen, compiled by W. Beisser and printed by O. Schulze in 1876 for students of the building's monuments. Its plates show numbered Kragsteine, carved corbels that support the ribs and beams, drawn in plain outline with light shading. Designers can take from them the stepped profiles, carved heads and stylised foliage of Gothic-era stone brackets, useful for ornamental borders and historic motifs.
