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...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cathedrals and Churches of Northern Italy Some of the earliest buildings erected for the purposes of worship are to be found in Rome, the native soil of Christianity. I say some only, for under Constantine, in whose reign the Christians first enjoyed peace, Churches were erected simultaneously in Rome, Constantinople and Jerusalem. These were, generally Speaking, similar in plan and arrangement. During the first three centuries of the Christian era churches can scarcely be said to have existed. The ordinary places of wor ship Oi the early Christians were confined to catacombs and other secret places.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cathedral Cities of Italy The cathedral cities of Italy, the heir of all the ages in art, are as full of enchantment to the lover of architecture as to the poet, the painter, and the historian. Side by side with the great churches that give them their crowning splendour are the public buildings, universities, palaces, and fountains that tell the story of the glorious past, and form the best monument of their great creators. These architectural jewels are often set amidst scenes of great natural beauty, which relieve and enhance the perfection of their art. Every traveller in Italy will recall the emotion with which he first saw Rome rising from the green stretches of the Campagna, recognised the domes and campaniles of Florence, or lifted up his eyes to one of those towered "cities set upon an hill, which cannot be hid" - Siena, Perugia, or Orvieto.
