Villard's sketchbook, filled with over 250 images, serves as a valuable personal and professional guide showcasing the art and design of 13th-century Northern France.
Villard de Honnecourt greets us through his sketchbook, imploring users to pray for his soul while highlighting the virtues of masonry and carpentry.
The Church Triumphant page showcases Villard's excellent grasp of ecclesiastical art, echoing the medieval culture's reverence for the Church's power and glory.
Villard is now seen as a skilled craftsman rather than an architect, with his drawings reflecting a deep creativity and keen observational skills.
