Churches of Goa

Churches of Goa Book Description

Goa's churches, Roman in scale, are the finest Neo-Roman monuments found in Asia. This book establishes Goa's cultural individuality, the basis for the distinctive character of the Goan church; describes the basic style of the Neo-Roman church specified by the five orders of classical architecture and lists the Goan church plans in vogue; and gives a detailed account of nine churches as examples of Goan architecture, which either closely follow European models in idiom and style, or subject European forms to an Indian aesthetic. Richly illustrated with maps and line drawings, the book will be of immense value to students of architectural history and the informed tourist interested in Goa and its culture.

Tourists, art historians, historians and general readers.
