The article presents an overview of the book "Lomabard Architecture," by Arthur Kingsley Porter. Porter, in his monumental work "Lombard Architecture," has made the most complete and authoritative contribution thus far produced in any language. It is extraordinary in the amount and quality of its documentation based on primary sources; in the number of hitherto unpublished monuments measured, studied, and photographed, by its author, some of them apparently quite unknown. This little book, embodying the results of two years of personal study of little-known churches in Lombardy, and a later series of papers in Italian on these and other churches.
