Abbot Suger on the Abbey Church of St. Denis and Its Art Treasures

Rating:
Summary: Panofsky's Chalice Runneth Over!!
Review: This is an OPUS MAGNUS of profound erudition! An indispensable must have for any student of Gothic Art & Architecture. From sheathed shafts thrusting upwards penetrating groin vaults to the most scholarly look nto this seminal figure in the Middle Ages, this text has it all! While certainly not a light read, it is a and important and pivotal work in the scholarship of the beginning of the Gothic era. It should be more readily available.
