Description: A Paper on Monuments. - - - DISCUSSION: By Rev. John Armstrong. Published in Oxford by John Henry Parker; in London by Rivingtons; and by Weale Architectural Library in Holborn, in 1849. The Rev. Armstrong was vicar of Exeter Cathedral; this is the text of a paper he read at an 1843 meeting of the Exeter Diocesan Architectural Society. The good Rev. Armstrong, in common with many of his day, found almost everything in the way of church and memorial ornament that came after about the 14th century as hopelessly depraved and ill-suited to places of Godly worship, with the nadir being reached in the 18th century, from which the architects and decorators of the early 19th century dug the pit further down towards Hell. Softcover. 5.5”x8.5”, 24 pages, 2 black & white plates. Some soil and light wear, spine splitting.
