Victorian architecture as a working discipline, from window tracery and fireproof floors to hospitals and workers' dwellings, is the subject of these prints by George Green, dated 1869 to 1874. Libraries, schools and hospitals appear with flying buttresses and structural plans, sections and details, and the named architects include Edward William Godwin, Clapton Rolfe and James McLaughlin, with projects in Oxford, Salford, Lytham and Cincinnati. Furniture is represented by the Sunderland gas offices and Godwin's Florence cabinet, and a tomb in Verona provides a historical model.
