Handbook to the cathedrals of England
A Victorian architectural handbook of 1861 by Richard John King, published in London by J. Murray, offering plates of English cathedrals for travellers and students of church architecture. The plates are black-and-white line engravings of cloisters, screens, doorways and choirs, with clear perspective and dense Gothic ornament a designer could study for pointed arches, ribbed vaulting and tracery patterns.
