The English Gothic style developed somewhat later than in France, but rapidly developed its own architectural and ornamental codes. The author, John Shannon Hendrix, classifies English Gothic architecture in four principal stages: the early English Gothic, the decorated, the curvilinear, and the perpendicular Gothic. Several photographs of these architectural testimonies allow us to understand the whole originality of Britain during the Gothic era: in Canterbury, Wells, Lincoln, York, and Salisbury. English Gothic architecture is a poetic one, speaking both to the senses and spirit"--Provided by publisher.Architecture, GothicArchitectureEnglandArchitecture, Gothic.Architecture726.50942/0902ART000000bisacshHendrix John899828MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827784203321The splendor of English gothic architecture4026736UNINA
