$a The added engraved title (listed as 'Plate I. Frontispiece') reads: 'Byzantine Architecture Illustrated By A Series Of The Earliest Christian Edifices In The East. By Charles Texier, And R. Popplewell Pullan. London. Published By Day & Son, Lithographers To The Queen & H.R.H. The Prince Of Wales.' A French version of the work ('L'Architecture byzantine') was published in London in the same year. One of Texier and Pullan's aims in publishing this book was to scotch the notion that Gothic was 'the only veritable Christian architecture'. Their book was one of the first scholarly accounts of the architecture of the eastern Roman Empire, and marks an increasing interest in Romanesque architecture and art. In the 19th century it was followed by studies by Vogüe, Cattaneo, Lethaby, Swainson and the Fossati brothers. More exact and thorough accounts began with R.W. Schultz and S. Barnsley's publication on the monastery churches of Hosios Lucas in 1901. More than half the plates show churches in Thessaloníce; the rest show buildings in Turkey, the Middle East, France and Italy, as follows: 1. Constantinople; 2. Kefeli near Baghdad; 3. Perga, Asia Minor; Dana; 4. Urgub; 5. Urgub; Cavesus (Lebanon); 6-7. Laodicea; 8-9. Ostia; 10. Riez; 11. Aix; Vernegue; 12-13. Vernegue; 14. Vienne; 15. Perga, Nîmes; 16. Trebizond; 17-55. Thessaloníce; 56. Broussa; 57. Constantinople; 58. Myra; 59-60. Dana; 60A-68 Trebizond; 69-70 various locations (inscriptions). They show plans, sections, elevations and views of buildings; architectural details, mosaics and inscriptions. The following are printed in full colour: 1, 5, 15, 16, 26, 30-34, 40, 41, 65, 66. |
