Winkles's architectural and picturesque illustrations of the cathedral churches of England and Wales : the drawings made from sketches taken expressly for this work : with historical and descriptive accounts
Winkles's Architectural and Picturesque Illustrations of the Cathedral Churches of England and Wales is a mid-nineteenth-century London publication of steel-engraved views by Benjamin Winkles, issued in 1851 for a general public interested in cathedral architecture. The plates show interiors of English cathedrals with tiny figures of visitors for scale. Designers can take from them the rhythm of pointed arches, ribbed vaults and tracery windows, and the soft grey tonal shading of engraved architecture.
