Specimens of the architecture of Normandy, from the XIth to the XVIth century, published in London by Blackie & Son in 1874, with plates by Britton, Pugin and the Le Keux brothers, for students of medieval church building. The plates are measured line engravings of Norman church architecture: ribbed vaults, pointed arches, clustered piers, window tracery, rose window and capital details, drawn as sections, elevations and plans with dimension lines that a designer could use for Gothic ornament and arch geometry.
