A. Welby Pugin

    Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin was een Engelse architect, ontwerper, kunstenaar en criticus, die vooral bekend staat om zijn pioniersrol in de neogotische stijl. Zijn werk culmineerde in het interieurontwerp van het Palace of Westminster en omvatte talrijke kerken in Engeland, Ierland en Australië. Pugin was niet alleen een schepper maar ook een criticus, die de architectonische smaak van zijn tijd vormgaf. Zijn nalatenschap ligt in zijn belangrijke bijdrage aan de heropleving van de gotische architectuur.

      Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin (1812-52), architect, author and interior designer, was among the most important figures in Britain's nineteenth-century Gothic Revival. First published in 1836, Contrasts is his most famous work, and this revised second edition of 1841 champions medieval architecture by satirically comparing it with 'debased' Regency equivalents.
