Das Kirchenportal
Das Kirchenportal is a 1901 German book by Edwin Redslob, published in Jena by H. Costenoble, that surveys medieval church portals and their sculpture for a scholarly readership. The four plates show Gothic and Romanesque church doorways in Strasbourg, Paderborn, Kaiserberg in Alsace and Colmar, photographed head-on with carved tympana, archivolts and column figures that a designer could use for arched frames, pointed-arch motifs and stone ornament.
