Gives a fascinating insight into Pugin's genius as a designer in the decorative arts and sets his work on brasses in the context of the religious revival and the improving fortunes of the Catholic Church in the first half of the nineteenth century. The author throws revealing light on Pugin's methods, the work of a particular firm and the industrial history of the Midlands in England over this period. In addition to the narrative chapters there is an extensive catalogue in tabular format and a selective gazetteer of Pugin's work arranged chronologically, and by countries. The text is enriched with illustrations throughout.
