About This Book

A richly illustrated guide surveys the major medieval cathedrals and church monuments of southern France, combining on-site descriptions with architectural history and regional context. After an introductory discussion of the region and the church in Gaul, it offers detailed, cathedral-by-cathedral accounts organized by geographical divisions (south of the Loire, the Rhone valley, Mediterranean coast, and Garonne basin), noting form, construction, decoration, and restorations. Appendices provide maps, stylistic classification, chronologies, plans and measurements, while illustrations, diagrams, and plans clarify structural features and regional variations in Romanesque and Gothic practice.
