Peter Paul Pugin

Peter Paul Pugin is an Arts and Crafts movement artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

This British designer worked in the Gothic Revival style, shaping stone and glass into pointed arches and soaring spires. His 1870 drawing "A Gothic Church Tower and Other Buildings" shows how the era wanted churches to look: tall, light-filled, and lacy with tracery. Trace the pencil lines and you’ll spot the same details that later architects copied for university chapels and city halls. Want to see more? Tap into “A Gothic Church Tower and Other Buildings” and zoom in on the spire’s tracery.
