SAMUEL PROUT
...we owe to Samuel Prout, I believe, the first conception and certainly the only expression, of precisely the characters which were wanting to old art,
of that feeling which results from the influence among the noble lines of architecture, of rent and rust, the fissures, the lichen and the weed,
and from the writings upon the pages of ancient walls, of the confused hieroglyphics of human history...
For numerous as have been his imitators, extended as his influence and simple as his means and manners,
there has a yet appeared nothing at all to equal him.There is no stone drawing, no vitalita of architecture like Prout's...
