Pugin, Augustus Welby Northmore, 1812-1852 · 1895 · Edinburgh : J. Grant · 31 pictures

A Gothic architecture treatise by A. W. N. Pugin, first delivered as lectures at St Mary's, Oscott, and issued in Edinburgh in 1895 by J. Grant for students of pointed church building. The plates are measured architectural drawings: a ceiling bay with star-patterned vaulting, a flying buttress and pinnacled pier in section, columns with pointed arches beside classical orders, and a panelled wall with tracery-like tops.
