Note 1 — WHERE ARE WE IN ART?
Reading edition
The Middle Age Italian, with its inlaid and decorated façades and wealth of columns, and traceries of gay-coloured stones, and contrasts of brilliant light and dark shadows in the deep-set windows and doors,—bright and lovely like Giotto's Campanile at Florence, rising like a flower over the city, or great churches like those of Orvieto and St. Mark's,1 with their rich profusion of mosaic and carved stone and quaint modifications of brickwork.
