Gravely Gorgeous: Gargoyles, Grotesques & the Nineteenth-Century Imagination
This site is a companion to an exhibit about the admiration by Victorians of the Gothic style of architectural decoration of cathedrals, which featured gargoyles ("decorative waterspouts that preserve stonework") and grotesques (that "serve a variety of other practical and ornamental functions, as corbels or capitals, for instance"). Includes a gallery of images and a glossary. From the Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, Cornell University Library.
