Description: | Mackintosh was impressed by Cremona's octagonal baptistery, making detailed drawings of both its exterior and interior. A plain Lombard Romanesque building of 1167, its interior is entirely of brick relieved by elegant stone columns and two arcaded galleries with a dome of 20.5m diameter surmounted by a lantern. The drawing, bottom right, represents the capital and base of one of the columns. | Subjects: | Cremona; baptisteries; baptistery; interior elevations; brick; stone; columns; arcades (structural assemblies); Romanesque; Churches (interiors) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Mackintosh, Charles Rennie | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9283... | Go to resource |
