The Touchstone of Architecture is a 1829 work by sir Reginald Theodore Blomfield on the subject of architecture. It explores the history of architecture in detail, looking at historical ideas and architectures with a focus on their relationship with art. Sir Reginald Theodore Blomfield RA (1856 - 1942) was a famous British garden designer, architect, and author during the Victorian and Edwardian period. Other notable works by this author include: Nottinghamshire: New Church (1890-92), Sussex: New House and Gardens (1891), and Hertfordshire: Alterations (1892)Contents include: State-Aided Training in Art in England, The Artist and the Community, Famous Men, The Outlook of Architecture (1913), Atavism in Art, The Bridges of London (1815-1920), The Tangled Skein.
