athedral of Pisa Commentary

Welcome to a new round with beautiful Almzrat Christianity around the world

athedral of Pisa Commentary

"Pisa Cathedral with Baptistery, Campanile and Campo Santo, together form one of the most famous building groups in the world. The cathedral is one of the finest of the Romanesque period and has a strongly marked individuality. It resembles other early basilican churches in plan, with long rows of columns connected by arches, double aisles,
  nave

 and a nave which has the usual timber roof. The exterior has bands of red and white marble, and the ground storey is faced with wall relief by tiers of wall passages which rise one above another right into the gable. The transepts, each with an apse at the end, were an advance on the simple basilican plan. The elliptical dome over the crossing is of later date.

 athedral of Pisa Commentary depends

The building depends for its interest on its general proportions and on the delicacy of its ornamental features, rather than on any new structural development, such as may be seen in northern Italy."
Europe travel
— Sir Banister Fletcher. A History of Architecture. p315.

We hope you you will be enjoyed to the meeting in a new round in the most beautiful Almzrat around the world
