Gothic architecture in England : an analysis of the origin & development of English church architecture from the Norman conquest to the dissolution of the monasteries

Bond, Francis, d. 1918 · 1906 · London : B.T. Batsford · 36 pictures

Francis Bond's 1906 London study by B.T. Batsford analyses English Gothic church architecture from the Norman Conquest to the Dissolution, written for students and scholars of building. Its pictures are measured drawings and ink sketches of window tracery, doorways, mouldings and wall elevations, with scale bars; a designer could draw on their precise pointed arches, quatrefoil rose and carved surface ornament.
