Perby Chapel Screen, Manchester Cathedral, Manchester, UK, 1884, Original Plan. H. Harrington.

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the Perby Chapel Screen at Manchester Cathedral in Manchester, England.  HAND-COLORED.  H. Harrington, Architect.  From the American Architect and Building News, May 16, 1884.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 12.25 by 8.25 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures 16 by 12 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored.  Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with very light browning and some minor crinkling.

This is a highly unusual, scarce item. See our other auctions for more hand-colored original plans.
