Humfrey Lovell and the Gates of Gonville and Caius College: A Note on the Sources.

The Renaissance gates of Gonville and Caius College Cambridge are by local tradition attributed to Theodore Haveus. Mark Girouard noted the possible involvement of the royal architect Humfrey Lovell in their design. This short paper tidies up the documentary evidence which supports this idea. The gates were based on the study of Serlio by the London-based architect and artists employed by John Caius at his refounded college, but were put into effect both by Lovell and, after him, Haveus.
