Edifices religieux : abbayes, églises et cloitres

Revoil, Henry · 1873 · Vve A. Morel & Cie, Libraires-Editeurs · 66 pictures

Edifices religieux is an 1873 architectural plate collection by Henry Revoil, published in Paris by Vve A. Morel & Cie, documenting abbeys, churches and cloisters for architects and students of medieval building. The plates are measured line drawings in sepia-toned print, showing arches, column capitals with carved foliage and volute scrolls, and wall bays at close scale, so a designer could draw on their clean ornamental rhythm and stone-carving detail for period borders or architectural framing.
