Encyclopédie d'architecture
Encyclopédie d'architecture is an 1851 architectural reference published in Paris by Bauce, compiled by Adolphe Lance and aimed at architects and students of building design. Its plates are measured line drawings: a pair of ornate capitals with profiles, a ground plan of a building with radiating aisles, a Gothic tracery rose window, and a garden column topped with a statue, which give a designer clear, precise models of classical and Gothic form.
