Item description from seller

This article examines how Italian Gothic architecture differs from its Northern European counterparts, highlighting the regional adaptations influenced by local materials, climate, and cultural preferences. Unlike the soaring verticality of French and English Gothic, Italian Gothic often incorporates rounded arches, elaborate marble facades, and classical elements, blending Romanesque and Renaissance influences. The article provides valuable insights into the evolution of Gothic architecture across Europe, emphasizing the unique stylistic choices made by Italian architects. 33 pages + 18 plates. An authentic standalone article, extracted from a larger volume. Not a reprint or reproduction, but an original work in its own right. Preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 25 x 30 cms. Category: Archaeologia; Cosmo Books : 29 years on ABE, 47 years taking care of customers. A bookseller you can rely on. Softcover (Booklet - Unbound Pages).
