Description

8vo., First Edition, with an engraved frontispiece, title in red and black, 21 fine engraved plates, and very numerous engraved illustrations (many full-page) in the text, neat contemporary monogram on title, rear free endpaper lightly foxed; original blind-blocked cloth lettered in gilt, very neatly rebacked with old backstrip gilt laid down, uncut, a notably bright, clean, crisp copy. With 2pp publisher's advertisement bound in at end. First appearance of a standard work in the early resurgence of 'Gothic'. Dedicated to the Oxford Society, Barr's study is eminently practical and very well organised by architectural feature. As usual with Parker's publications, the plates and illustrations (which include a number by Jewitt) are both delightful and detailed. Uncommon in this condition.
