Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stones of Venice the Fall the Poetry of Architecture Poems Giotto and His Works in Padua, Vol. 3 Prosperity, its streets were inwrought with rich sculpture, and even (though in this, as before noticed, Venice always stood supreme) glowing with color and with gold. Now, therefore, let the reader, - forming for himself as vivid and real a con ception as he is able, either of a group of Venetian palaces in the fourteenth century, or, if he likes better, of one of'the more fantastic but-even richer street scenes of Rouen, Ant werp, Cologne, or Nuremberg, and keeping this gorgeous image before him, - go out into any thoroughfare; representa tive, in a general and characteristic way, of' the feeling for domestic architecture in modern times let him, for instance, if in London, walk once up and down Harley Street, or Baker Street, or Gower Street and then, looking upon this picture and on this, set himself to consider (for this is to be the sub ject of our following and final inquiry) what have been the causes which have' induced'so vast a change in' the European mind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetry of Architecture: Poems Giotto and His Works in Padua The Science of Architecture, followed out to its full extent, is one of the noblest of those which have reference only to the creations of human minds. It is not merely a science of the rule and compass, it does not consist only in the observation of just rule, or of fair proportion: it is, or ought to be, a science of feeling more than of rule, a ministry to the mind, more than to the eye. If we consider how much less the beauty and majesty of a building depend upon its pleasing certain prejudices of the eye, than upon its rousing certain trains of meditation in the mind, it will show in a moment how many intricate questions of feeling are involved in the raising of an edifice; it will convince us of the truth of a proposition, which might at first have appeared startling, that no man can be an architect, who is not a metaphysician. To the illustration of the department of this noble science which may be designated the Poetry of Architecture, this and some future articles will be dedicated.
