Summary: 'The Late Mr Cave was one of the most celebrated photographers of architecture and sculpture in England He had made the study of roof bosses his spacial field of research, fascinated both by their position which makes them accessible only to the most skillful photographic artists, but by their subject matter taken from the most diverse fields of religion, history and folklore. The Present book illustrates to perfection his technique as a photographer and a writer. It deals with Exeter Cathedral, the treasure house of ththirteenth-and fourteenth - century sculpture and decoration, and chiefly with the roof bosses and the corbels on which they vaulting shafts stand. Their outstanding artistic quality will come as a revelation even to those most familiar with the Cathedral.' - From the Jacket
