Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Brasses of England In the following pages I have endeavoured to give a general survey of the whole of the monumental brasses yet existing in England. The subject is one which has been before antiquaries for a number of years, and about which there is a quite considerable literature. At the same time it is a literature not generally accessible, and consists chiefly of books long out of print, and of papers and articles printed in the Transactions of the various societies, as well as a number of pamphlets privately printed. The text-book is A Manual of Monumental Brasses, by the Rev. Herbert Haines, M. A., published in 1861, in two volumes, the first an Introduction, and the second a List of Brasses arranged in counties, which has formed the basis of all succeeding lists. The Introduction is an amplification of an earlier Manual which accompanied a Descriptive Catalogue of Rubbings issued by the Oxford Architectural Society. Earlier works include Gough´s Sepulchral Monuments in Great Britain, published 1786; A Series of Monumental Brasses from the Thirteenth to the Sixteenth Century, 1842-1864, by J. G. and L. A. B. Waller; and Monumental Brasses and Slabs, by the Rev. Charles Boutell, 1847, and The Monumental Brasses of England, by the same author, in 1849, series of engravings upon wood with brief descriptive notices.
