GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE.—The editors use this superb picture to introduce the display, of Gothic art contained in the book, “Gothic Europe” (published by Angus and Robertson). In this picture, the editors say, the upward surge, the transformation of massive stone into the spiritualised forms of cathedral Gothic seems to the onlooker to be the image of divine harmonies. The picture is an interior view of Notre-Dame, in Amiens, the “Parthenon of Gothic.”
