Excerpt from Church Decoration: A Practical Manual of Appropriate Ornamentation This little Manual has been compiled with the assistance of a very experienced practical Illuminator. The practical part supplied by him is quite original, and will, we believe, be found very useful. To Mrs. Brewster, a contributor - as Mrs. English - to the "Home Book," we are indebted for some valuable hints, which we here gratefully acknowledge. Every effort has been made to render the little Work complete. The Floral Decorations will be more fully understood by the plates, we think, than by any verbal description: while the formation of letters, &c., will be found to be greatly simplified by the diagrams illustrating them. We trust this humble aid may give a new impetus to the Art of Church Decoration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
