Documents sur la sculpture religieuse du pays Joinvillois et de la Hte-Marne : Croix et Dieux de pitié

Humblot, Emile · 1903 · Saint-Dizier : O. Godard · 38 pictures

A 1903 French study by Emile Humblot, published in Saint-Dizier by O. Godard, documenting carved religious crosses and pity-images from the Joinville region and Haute-Marne. The pictures are pen-and-ink drawings of roadside stone crosses set on shafts, plinths and bases, with a close detail of a crucifix capital, offering a designer a clear model for ornate Gothic-revival stone carving and ironwork-like cross forms.
