[Edifices religieux] : chapelles et oratoires

Revoil, Henry · 1873 · Vve A. Morel & Cie, Libraires-Editeurs · 62 pictures

A French architectural survey by Henry Revoil, published in 1873 by Vve A. Morel and issued through ETH-Bibliothek, covering religious buildings such as chapels and oratories. The pictures are measured line drawings of Romanesque and early medieval stonework: arched portals with carved voussoirs, twisted and banded columns, and foliage capitals drawn in fine sepia lines with simple shading. A designer could take from them clean ornamental motifs such as zigzag and billet moulding, rope-twist shafts and stone-block patterns.
