Dugdale, William, 1605-1686 · 1655 · Londini : Typis Richardi Hodgkinsonne · 9 pictures

A 1655 London monastic history by antiquary William Dugdale, compiling records of English Benedictine, Cluniac, Cistercian and Carthusian monasteries for scholars and antiquaries. Its engravings pair full-length figures of religious orders in cloaks and habits with architectural views of abbey buildings, crisp black-line etching useful for period costume and church-architecture references.
