Les ornements du Moyen Age

Heideloff, Carl Alexander von [Hrsg.], Görgel, Carl [Hrsg.] · 1842 · 34 pictures

A 1842 German plate book of medieval architectural ornament, edited by Carl Alexander von Heideloff and Carl Görgel and held by Heidelberg University Library, aimed at architects and craftsmen. Its plates show carved capitals, foliage bands, and a tracery panel drawn in engraved line with light shading, so a designer can borrow stone-carved acanthus, scroll, and leaf motifs for decorative borders, column heads, or pattern repeats.
