Note 288 — Chapter IX · The Gothic Art of Burgundy[267]
Reading edition
“The long prospect of nave and choir ends with a sort of graceful smallness in a chevet of seven closely packed, narrow bays. It is like a nun’s church, or like a nun’s coif.”—Walter Pater, on Pontigny, in Miscellaneous Studies (London, The Macmillan Company, 1895).
