Handbook to the cathedrals of England
Handbook to the cathedrals of England by Richard John King, published in London by John Murray in 1861, a guide for travellers and readers interested in English church architecture. The plates are steel-engraved views of cathedral interiors, including the chapter house at Lichfield, a canopied tomb recess at Gloucester, and Bishop Stanbury's chapel at Hereford, showing vaulted ceilings, tracery windows, and clustered piers that a designer could draw on for Gothic arch and pattern motifs.
