Side 40 - There a wall set upon pillars divided the crosses from the choir, but here the crosses are separated from the choir by no such partition, and converge together in one keystone, which is placed in the middle of the great vault which rests on the four principal pillars. There, there was a ceiling of wood decorated with excellent painting...
Side 137 - THE GENERAL APPEARANCE of Decorated buildings is at once simple and magnificent; simple from the small number of parts, and magnificent from the size of the windows, and the easy flow of the lines of tracery. In the interior of large buildings we find great breadth, and an enlargement of the clerestory windows, with a corresponding diminution of the triforium, which is now rather a part of the clerestory opening, than a distinct member of the division. The roofing from the increased richness of the...

Side 58 - This chapel is in the most complete preservation ; a perfect gem of its kind, and a most singular and interesting specimen of that mixture of style which is only to be found, and could only be found in Sicily.
Side 12 - He also prayed to have architects sent him to build a church in his nation after the Roman manner, promising to dedicate the same in honour of St.
Side 134 - ... and the same arrangement is usual in the fronts of the north and south transepts, and at the west end also, when there is no tower. Sometimes the lancets are small, and have a small window over them in the gable, as at Strixton, Northamptonshire (118), which also has the sunk panels, and is a valuable specimen of plain Early English work throughout.
