Note sur la chapelle de la Conception dans l'église de Saint-Père, à Chartres

Durand, Paul, 1806-1882 · 1857 · Chartres : Garnier · 6 pictures

A French antiquarian note of 1857 by Paul Durand, printed at Chartres by Garnier, describing the Chapel of the Conception in the church of Saint-Père at Chartres for scholars and antiquaries. The four pictures are faded photographic or heliographic plates of carved and painted wall panels, showing shallow relief frames, recessed rectangular bays and sculpted ornament, which a designer might study for early architectural panel layout and tonal low-relief decoration.
