Architectural fragments of St Albans Cathedral
Engraving
62 x 46 cm
This engraving was originally published by the Society of Antiquaries of London, an organisation dedicated to studying and preserving historical monuments. Recognising it as one of England's most significant medieval structures, the society commissioned a series of engravings of St Albans Cathedral in 1810 by James Basire--based on drawings by the architectural draughtsman John Carter. In doing so, the Antiquaries hoped to preserve and disseminate knowledge of England’s architectural heritage.
This engraving depicts an architectural fragment of St Albans Cathedral, focussing on the tiered windows that line the nave.
