An analysis of Gothic architecture. Illustrated by a series of upwards of seven hundred examples of doorways, windows, mouldings, roofs, arches, crosses, panels, buttresses, seats, screens, etc., and accompanied with remarks on the several details of an ecclesiastical edifice
An analysis of Gothic architecture by Raphael Brandon, first published in the nineteenth century and reissued in Edinburgh by J. Grant in 1903, is a plate book of ecclesiastical design for architects and students of church building. Its pictures are precise line drawings of pointed arches, window tracery, and carved finials, drawn flat and measured with scale bars, so a designer can take from them clean ornamental rhythms, arch profiles, and repeating tracery patterns.
