From the back cover:
These royalty-free motifs feature exquisite specimens of the sculptured ornaments from northern Europe's largest medieval cathedral. The Cathedral and Metropolitical Church of St. Peter in York, popularly known as York Minster, was founded as a missionary church. Its soaring Gothic architecture and vast interior, parts of which date back to the thirteenth century, feature some of the best examples of the medieval craftsman's work to be found anywhere.
This compilation consists of 175 illustrations, selected from throughout the cathedral. Like the building of the church itself, the ornaments were executed during different eras. This collection, reproduced from a rare eighteenth-century volume, offers artists and graphic designers an unusual selection of authentic architectural motifs from the Middle Ages.
