A Guide to Church Ornamentation,
By
This review is from: Discovering Church Architecture: A Glossary of Terms (Discovering Series) (Shire Discovering) (Paperback)
Religious structures are the most decorated works of architecture, as can be seen in Aztec, Hindu, and Christian worship sites. This is a pocket sized guide to the artistic nuances of Christian churches. As profusely illustrated as it is, not every term is accompanied by a image. Still, its size is convenient for purse or back pocket, and what illustrations it holds will enhance acquaintance with church interior and exterior.
