$a In his Preface (p. ii) Shaw acknowledges his indebtedness to Rev. Dr. Ingram of Trinity College, Oxford, for the History and Description of the Chapel. All twenty plates are signed as drawn and engraved by H. Shaw. Each carries the publishers' imprint of Carpenter and Son (and publication-date). The dedication headpiece is signed as drawn by T. Willement and engraved by Shaw; the illustration on page 14 is signed as drawn and engraved by Shaw. The printer is named in the colophon: ' 'R. Clay, Printer, Bread-Street-Hill.' (But the RIBA's copy is catalogued as having the imprint of W. Davy at this place.) The work is dedicated by Henry Shaw to John Crichton Stuart, Marquess of Bute. |

$a The publication-date of October 15 1829 appears on the title-plate, but most plates carry earlier publication-dates, and two parts of the text carry later ones (Preface, December 1st 1829; dedication, January 1st 1830). The plates appear to have been published serially in four groups of five plates - in 1827 April (pl. 3, 6, 7, 12, 15), 1827 Aug. (pl. 2, 8, 11, 16, 17), 1828 Mar. (pl. 5, 9, 13, 19, 20), 1829 Oct. 15 (pl. 1, 4, 10, 14, 18). The work describes the carved wooden pulpit, screens, altar, panelling and fireplace, once installed in the chapel at Luton Hoo between 1612 and 1674, and recently installed by Lord Bute in a new chapel designed by R. Smirke in 1816. The text mentions the possibility that these furnishings may have been originally made in 1548 or earlier. They were destroyed by fire in 1843. The plates show: 1. (title-plate); 2. 'Ground-Plan'; 3. 'Section AA On Plan' (fireplace); 4. 'Details At Large ...'; 5. 'Section B.B. On Plan' (fireplace, settles, door); 6. 'Section C.C On Plan' (choir stalls, pulpit); 7. 'Pulpit And Clerk's Desk' (elevation, plan); 8. 'Section At D.D On Plan' (panelling, windows, altar); 9. 'Altar Screen At Large'; 10. 'Section At E.E On Plan' ((pulpit, stalls, north window, altar); 11. 'Section At F.F On Plan' (choir screen, north window); 12. 'Section G.G On Plan' ((door, stalls); 13. 'Perspective View. Looking Towards The Chimney Piece'; 14. 'Perspective View. Looking Towards The Altar'; 15. 'Principal Entrance Door', 'Entrance Door Section BB'; 16. 'Door Head At Large ...'; 17. 'Details At Large ...'; 19. 'Ornaments On The Battlements ...' (and inscription); 20. 'Pateras At Large ...' (carvings above rood-screen). Fourteen plates are marked as 'Proof' (pl. 2, 3, 5-9, 12, 13, 15-17, 19, 20). The in-text illustrations consist of an armorial headpiece to the dedication and a print on p.14 showing doors. |
