This very complete book with 352 beautifully illustrated color pages is a fascinating panorama of European ironworks in European architecture from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.

The author first presents the profession of locksmith and his technique; then he focuses on the description of the different European productions, the models drawn and engraved and the adaptation that is made according to schools and countries. A true grammar of styles unfolds over the book, accompanied by more than four hundred commented examples.
An illustrated and exhaustive lexicon of forms and techniques - the first ever made - concludes this monumental panorama.
Designed both as a valuable tool and as an illustrated art book, this book will interest lovers of heritage that actors, architects, locksmiths, restorers, art historians, ornamentalists and designers.

Description
Fers forgés dans l'architecture européenne, de B. Wodon, Ed. Faton, 21 cm x 29 cm, relié avec 352 pages couleurs
Cet ouvrage très complet avec 352 pages couleur superbement illustré est un passionnant panorama des oeuvres européennes de ferronnerie dans l'architecture européenne du Moyen-Âge au XXe siècle.
Le travail du fer connait un nouvel essor à partir de la fin du Moyen Âge, sous l'impulsion des grandes abbayes et des princes qui accordent aux serruriers protection et privilèges. S'ensuit, pendant plus de quatre siècles, un âge d'or toujours plus virtuose, dont témoignent aujourd'hui clôtures, garde-corps de balcons, rampes d'escalier...
L'auteur présente d'abord le métier de serrurier et sa technique ; puis il s'attache à la description des différentes productions européennes, aux modèles dessinés et gravés et à l'adaptation qui en est faite selon les écoles et les pays. Une véritable grammaire des styles se déploie ainsi au fil de l'ouvrage, accompagnée par plus de quatre cents exemples commentés.
Un lexique illustré et exhaustif des formes et des techniques - le premier jamais réalisé - clôt ce monumental panorama.
Conçu à la fois comme un outil précieux et comme un livre d'art, très illustré, cet ouvrage intéressera les amateurs amoureux du patrimoine que les acteurs, architectes, serruriers ferronniers, restaurateurs, historiens d'art, ornemanistes et designers.
