Summary "The Brochure Series of Architectural Illustration, Vol. 01, No. 10, October…" is a publication focused on architectural illustration, produced in the late 19th century. Specifically, this issue covers French farmhouses and examines their architectural significance and adaptability for modern American designs. The book serves as a periodical, showcasing different architectural styles and elements, aimed at architects and enthusiasts interested in practical applications of design ideas. In this issue, the text highlights two notable French farmhouses: the Manoir d'Ango and the Ferme de Turpe, both located in Normandy. The analysis of the Manoir d'Ango, built in the early 16th century, reveals its historical importance and architectural beauty, emphasizing its refined details and picturesque qualities. Despite its current use as a farmhouse, the Manoir d'Ango retains elements of its former grandeur. The Ferme de Turpe, while less ornamented and in poorer condition, is also discussed for its potential influence on American country house architecture. The publication advocates for the adaptation of these French architectural features, suggesting that their designs can inspire modern homes in America while maintaining a unique character that resonates with contemporary living.
