Item description from seller

Folio. Publisher's cloth. viii, 32 pages, 36 plates each with unnumbered text leaves. First edition. [McLean, Victorian Book Design, pages 133-134; Hauck, 50.] This was the first authoritative English language guide to the use of medieval design. The authors were practicing architects in Liverpool and wrote the book to meet the growing demands of the gothic revival movement. The book was an instant success. Some of the Audsleys designs were directly copied to wallpaper and stencils. The thirty-six plates are fine chromolithographs by Firmin-Didot, Paris, the best color printers of the time.
