About This Book
A sketchbook collects a sequence of architectural and interior drawings of an abbey-and-college complex, presenting measured views, perspective studies, and plates of built spaces. The images document gateways, the entrance hall and clock tower, study steps, private studies and the upper library, the college porch and church interiors, plus exterior scenes from the cricket field and terrace and drawings of the preparatory school including classroom gallery, boys' entrance and dormitory. The drawings emphasize architectural detail, spatial atmosphere, and the relationship between sacred and domestic school spaces through observational, pictorial studies.
