Monumenti storici ed artistici degli Abruzzi
Monumenti storici ed artistici degli Abruzzi is an 1889 Neapolitan survey of historic monuments and art in the Abruzzi region of Italy, compiled by Vincenzo Bindi for a general readership of scholars and travellers. Its plates are photographic reproductions of buildings, with a tipped-in plan of a church, a stone stair and doorway in Aquila, a carved column, and the Teramo cathedral portal. For a designer, the pictures offer clear examples of Romanesque and Gothic stonework, with carved capitals, twisted columns and arched portals.
