Architectural Symbolism by H. Stanley Redgrove is a comprehensive study of the symbolic meanings behind various architectural elements and designs. The book explores how architects throughout history have used symbolism to convey meaning and express ideas through their buildings. Redgrove examines the use of symbols such as the cross, the circle, and the square, as well as the significance of colors, numbers, and geometric shapes in architectural design. He also delves into the use of mythological and religious imagery, and how it has been incorporated into buildings to convey deeper meaning. The book includes numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers understand the concepts being discussed. Overall, Architectural Symbolism provides a fascinating look at the hidden meanings behind some of the world's most iconic buildings and structures.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Bygone Beliefs Being a Series of Excursions in the Byways of Thought, by H.
