Gothic Architecture

Abstract

The architectural designs of Batty Langley greatly influenced Englands Gothic Revival movement in the second half of the eighteenth century. This volume (beautifully engraved by his brother Thomas), which completely reproduces the authors most famous and influential work, displays columns, entablatures, windows, mantels, pavilions, and a host of other architectural features. An indispensable book for students and aficionados of eighteenth-century architecture and design, this collection of permission-free illustrations will also be welcomed by designers and artists in search of period elegance.
