Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book covers how iron was employed in architecture from the early days of Tubal Cain to its use in the present day. The author details how iron was initially used for utilitarian purposes, and then its use expanded to include ornamental features. The book outlines how iron became popular for its tractability, and how skilled artisans developed it to create beautiful and functional objects for buildings. The book explores the development of ironwork in various periods of building, including weathervanes, roof finials, gates, windows, door grilles, fences, and more. The author discusses how these objects were effectively studied and executed to become splendid examples of art, and how their ornamental function eventually surpassed their practical purpose. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
