About This Item
1799Practical House Carpenter 146 Architecture Plates Construction Plans Pain
William Pain was an 18th-century English architect known for his extensive pattern and construction books. He designed churches, facades, columns, staircases, decorative ceilings and moldings, fireplaces and much more, all of which is featured in his 'Practical House Carpenter'.
This 1799 edition of Pain's 'Practical House Carpenter' features the entirety of the illustrated plates – an exquisite collection of Pain's own etchings and design patterns.
This tome also features a curious inclusion of a volume from J Taylor's "Catalogue of Modern Books on Architecture" – a short pamphlet not originally associated with Pain's famous treatise.
