Ancient models, or, Hints on church-building
Ancient models, or, Hints on church-building is a London architectural treatise published by Burns in 1841 and written by Charles Henry John Anderson, offering guidance to church builders in the Gothic manner. The pictures are plain black-and-white line drawings of church exteriors, towers and spires, with clean outlines and little shading, showing how pointed windows, buttresses and crocketed pinnacles were arranged; a designer could borrow their simple linework and Gothic silhouettes for ecclesiastical or heritage motifs.
