I have chosen to research the Gothic revival style started in 19th century England.
1. A Book With Single Author:
This book talks about Gothic revival in general giving a greater scope of the style rather than being limited to architecture or furniture like many other sources. I would use this resource to broaden my understanding of the style and its development.

2. A Scholarly Journal Article
This source gives a brief explanation of the way Gothic revival spread and the mediums used. It references architects, designers and authors of the time. I would use this article as an overview before researching each of the figures mentioned. It also links the style to modern day exhibitions.

3. An Edited Book
This is a collection of 21 essays based on Pugin, credited as the instigator of the Gothic revival in the 29th century. This book would be good for finding information specific to this designer and to find out how he influenced others.

This image shows detailing on arches which were a main architectural feature in the Gothic style. The book that it comes from was published during the Gothic revival period and would have been used as inspiration for designers of the time.
