This book publishes the PhD thesis of the late Thomas Blagg, widely
regarded as the foremost scholar of Roman architecture and
architectural sculpture of recent times. Well-written, clearly
presented and well-illustrated, his thesis is a survey of decorated
stonework that was used in the construction and embellishment of
Roman buildings in Britain. After a brief look at the tools and
techniques used, he presents a classification scheme and discussion
of the different elements, including decorated capitals, bases,
shafts, pilasters and decorative mouldings. This invaluable
collection of source material also provides a broader study of
craft production, mason and techniques, and historical and social
contexts.
