Select examples of architectural grandeur in Belgium, Germany, and France:
Charles Wild's 1843 architectural volume, published in London by H. G. Bohn and drawn from the Getty Research Institute's copy, presents select Gothic church interiors from Belgium, Germany and France for an audience of architects and students of architecture. The plates are fine line engravings of nave, aisle and altar views, with rows of columns, pointed vaults and tall windows, and a designer could take from them the rhythm of clustered piers and ribbed arches as a structural and ornamental motif.
