Description

Originally published in 1938, this volume provides a detailed study of the Romanesque style as exemplified by the architecture of the Cluniac Monastic Order. The key features of Cluniac architectural style are discussed in detail and observations are supported with a broad variety of illustrative examples. Other features include comprehensive lists of Cluniac Houses and affiliated Parish Churches, a key to Marrier's Catalogus, and a generous bibliography. This is a well-presented and highly informative book that will be of value to anyone with an interest in Christian monastic architecture.
