Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of color plates and black and white cuts created from the author's drawings of ancient stained glass windows from across England. The plates showcase glasswork from the Early English, Decorated, Perpendicular, Cinque Cento, and Intermediate styles. The author was a pioneering figure in the study and preservation of stained glass and his work documented over 150 churches, providing invaluable insight into glasswork design, iconography, and technique before the extensive restoration work of the later 19th century. This book is a fascinating visual reference for historians, architects and anyone with a passion for medieval art and architecture.
