About The Study-book of Mediæval Architecture and Art
The Study-book of Mediæval Architecture and Art: Being a Series of Working Drawings of the Principal Monuments of the Middle Ages : Whereof the Plans, Sections, and Details are Drawn to Uniform Scales
Volume 1-2
This is a reproduction of an original work published in 1868 by Henry Sotheran and co.
Reproduced from the original four 1868 volumes, this Medieval masterwork contains over 400 plates, representing more than 80 churches, covering a wider range than any publication of it’s day.
Written at the height of the English Gothic Revival period, King aims to represent the ancient edifices of the Middle Ages in an abounding collection of accurate and attractive drawings that any student around the world can study the ancient grandeur of the Medieval period.
The treasure-trove of Gothic and Romanesque architecture is a rare and refreshing find among the saturated supply of Greco-Roman treatises from King’s contemporaries in his age. This underrated classic reintroduced a Christian style of building which had been lost for centuries but saw a growing popularity as it served to balance the secular monotony of King’s day.
