Choix d'églises bysantines en Grèce

Couchaud, Andre · 1842 · Paris : Lenoir · 10 pictures

Choix d'églises bysantines en Grèce is an 1842 Paris album by the architectural draughtsman André Couchaud, published by Lenoir, documenting Byzantine churches in Greece for architects and students of medieval building. The plates pair finished elevation views of small domed churches with ground plans and detail sheets, drawn in clean, precise line with minimal shading. A designer could draw from their stone masonry textures, arched colonnades, and tiled roofs, and from the orderly plan-and-elevation layouts.
