An Essay On Church Furniture and Decoration

Written in 1868 by Edward Lewes Cutts, a prominent Anglican clergyman and historian, this essay provides a thoughtful reflection on the role of church furniture and decoration in Christian worship. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of art history and theology, Cutts argues that the beauty of a church is essential to its spiritual significance, and offers practical guidance for the proper arrangement and decoration of ecclesiastical spaces. This book remains an important contribution to the history of church architecture and design.
