The calendar of the Anglican Church illustrated : with brief accounts of the saints who have churches dedicated in their names, or whose images are most frequently met with in England : the early christian and medieval symbols : and an index of emblems
An 1851 Oxford and London illustrated guide to the Church of England calendar, compiled under the Church of England and published by J.H. Parker, identifying saints by their churches and their emblems for English readers. The four pictures are line drawings of saints in medieval manner: a seated saint with a book and cross inside a pointed oval frame, a standing saint holding books, an enthroned saint under an arch with columns, and a crowned female saint with a book and a wheel. Designers can take from them the outlined, flat, symbol-based figure style and the use of attributes to identify a holy figure.
