BUTTERFIELD, WILLIAM (18141900)

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 890 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BUN-CAL
BUTTERFIELD, WILLIAM (18141900) , English architect, was born in London, and educated for his profession at Worcester, where he laid the
foundations
  of his knowledge of
Gothic
  architecture. He settled in London and became prominent in connexion with the
Cambridge
  Camden Society, and its
work
  in the improvement of
church
  furniture and art. His first important building was St
Augustine
 's, Canterbury (1845), and his reputation was made by All Saints', Margaret
Street
 , London (1859), followed by St Alban's, Holborn (1863), the new part of Merton College,
Oxford
  (1864),
Keble
  College,
Oxford
  (1875), and many houses and ecclesiastical buildings. He also did much
work
  as a restorer, which has been adversely criticized. He was a keen churchman and intimately associated with the English
church
  revival. He had somewhat
original
  views as to colour in architecture, which led to rather garish results, his view being that any combination of the natural colours of the materials was permissible. His private life was retiring, and he died unmarried on the 23rd of February 1900.
