A concise glossary of terms used in Grecian, Roman, Italian, and Gothic architecture
A glossary of architectural terms by John Henry Parker, published in Oxford and London in 1882, covering Grecian, Roman, Italian and Gothic building forms for students and practising architects. Its pictures are line engravings of single architectural members such as a clustered pier, a traceried window with cusped arches, a fluted-looking octagonal column and a fret or key moulding, drawn with hatched shading that a designer could borrow for ornamental borders, dividers or period-styled linework.
