Cathedral interiors and close architectural detail distinguish the prints by James Sargant Storer and Henry Sargant Storer, early nineteenth-century engravings for illustrated topographical works. James (1771–1853) worked with his son Henry, who died in 1837, and their subjects run from Bangor and Chester to Chichester, Worcester and Oxford. At Bangor separate views examine the nave, tower, transepts and episcopal palace, while the doorways and font at Iffley single out individual features, and Malvern Abbey and Dudley Priory add monastic remains. Credits vary between individual and joint names, so not every plate is the work of both men together.
