Abstract
This Paper is the second part of the thesis on architectural polychromy revivalism in the nineteenth century. All Saint's church, Margaret Street, is not only the first monument of High Victorian architecture, arguably William Butterfield's masterpiece, but also influenced all subsequent criticism of constructional polychromy. I focused my attention on three points in this paper. I intend to describe the process of creation on William Butterfield's constructional polychromy, and his relationship with Ruskin's polychromatic theory. Thirdly, to reconstruct the character of his polychromy through to discover his theory of design, and to look at his building.
