Sixty antique plates showcase metal doors, grilles, balconies, window arches, impressive gates from country houses, corner pieces, decorative embellishments, and more, many wrought with gargoyles, human figures, and floral designs. An accurate and invaluable reference for art historians, architects, and designers, this is a collection of very clear monochrome photographs from German decorative ironwork sources of the 16th through to 18th Centuries, originally published in Liepzig in 1909.
