Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cathedral of Orvieto: Sixty-Four Illustrations and d104 Later on, in 1309, he was recalled to Orvieto to assume the direction of the works. It was at this time that he became possessed of the genial idea of a charming and majestic facade instead of the one already begun in black and white bands like the interior side walls. The facade. This miracle of art seems a huge page painted in miniature, whereon in marble and mosaic shines forth the whole story of the Christian religion. The harmony of the mosaic pictures with their golden backgrounds and the architecture, whether of the whole or the parts, and the fine mingling of horizontal and vertical lines, make it one of the most beautiful creations of the Italian Gothic. Of the various designs which were preserved in the Archives of the Works up to 1825, only three remain today, two being facade plans and one a variation of the central rose.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1908 edition. Excerpt: ...compartments, in the flat, pilaster-like form of the bearing member of the transverse rib of the vaulting, and in the section of that rib itself in the treatment of the banded imposts, which do duty as capitals at the level of the springing of the pier arches, but which are wholly different from pure Gothic capitals, and in their successive ranges of acanthus-like leaves recall the Corinthian of older days. Then, by repetition of the same class of enriched banded imposts at the springing of the vaulting ribs, the effect given is of a secondary stage of classic pilasters, placed upon, though without intervening base, the lower impost of the pier of the nave arcade. Again, in the plain, oblong-sectioned pier of division between the aisle and the chapels, with its quasi-cornice as imposts, and absence of edge-moulding to those arches, it is as if the architect had forgotten for the nonce the role he had been striving to play, and had in forgetfulness relapsed to the classic character with which he was really more familiar. There is no straining after height, no feeling of growth in the structure, no subdivision into ascending stages of arcade, triforium and clerestory, no contrast by string-courses to enhance the value of what height there is, no delicate proportioning of the several capitals to the scale of the members they have to support. But, in lieu thereof, we perceive a contentment with the breadth of the separate features which gives a painfully disconnected character to the whole. The glories of St. Petronio at Bologna are, unquestionably, its stained glass and the screens of varied style which those twentytwo chapels enclose. The former is invested with a high interest from the very fine examples of the several periods which it...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Cathedrals In the year 705 the great diocese of Wessex was divided, and Devonshire with Cornwall came under the control of the bishops of Sherborne. So they continued until 909, when the see of Crediton was founded for the two counties. In 936. Athelstan having completed the conquest of the West, a separate see was established for Cornwall at St. Germans. Crediton and St. Germans were again united in 1042 under Bishop Living: eight years later the place of the see was removed to Exeter by Bishop Leofric. Athelstan had founded a monastery there, which Sweyn destroyed in 1003. But Canute in 1019 built a new church, and this in 1050 became the Cathedral. It stood on the site of the present building, and all trace of it has now disappeared. Bishop Warelwast was the first builder of the church as we now know it: the two transeptal towers of his work remain. In 1280 Peter Quivil succeeded to the bishopric and began his wonderful transformation: it is to him that we owe the Decorated work of the building. The see of Exeter, with its thirty-two manors and fourteen palaces, was one of the richest and most attractive in England. Its bishops being largely drawn from the wealthy families, were able to carry out their building operations in a lavish manner.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Famous Cathedrals as Seen and Described by Great Writers The western limb of the cathedral is called the nave. The term choir is sometimes loosely applied to the whole Of the eastern limb. Strictly it applies just to that part of the church where the stalls are; and that part, as in St. Al ban's and Norwich, need not necessarily be in the eastern limb at all, but in the crossing and in the easternmost bays of the nave.

The present design has been to execute such a plan by a selection of subjects, more or less appropriate to the parts which they are made to repre sent, from the Liturgy, and the Doctrine and Discipline of the Church; care beingtaken to adhere as much as possible to the relative proportions of such a structure.
