A Manual For The Study Of Monumental Brasses: With A Descriptive Catalogue Of Four Hundred And Fifty Rubbings (1848) by Herbert Haines is a comprehensive guide to the study of monumental brasses. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which provides an overview of the history and development of monumental brasses, including their design, manufacture, and symbolism. The second part of the book contains a detailed catalogue of 450 rubbings of monumental brasses, along with descriptions and analysis of each one. The rubbings are organized by location, and include examples from churches and other public buildings throughout England. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of art and architecture, as well as for scholars and researchers in the fields of history, archaeology, and anthropology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
