About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: 125 Art. IV.? The Rhythm of Bernard de Morlaix, Monk of Cluny, on the Celestial Country. Edited and Translated by the Rev. J. M. Nkale, M. A., Warden of Sackville College. Hayes: 1859. Who that has ever seen it can forget that south chapel in the Cathedral of Ghent, where is Van Eyck's picture of the Adoration of the Immaculate Lamb ? The ' Lamb as it had been slain, ' standing on that wonderful altar?angels bearing the instruments of the Passion around it?the fields of Paradise, bright with thousands and thousands of flowers?the company of the blessed, martyrs, confessors, and virgins, in their different troops?below, pilgrims and hermits, righteous judges, righteous kings, righteous warriors; and as a background to all, the towers of New Jerusalem, idealized indeed, and transfigured, but still the steeples of old Belgian cities: you have Utrecht, you have Liege, you have Tournay, Mechlin, and others. It would be an interesting inquiry, how far national habits and natural landscape moulded the ideas which mediaeval sculptors and painters formed of paradise. Chiefly we mean in the sculpture and stained glass of the cathedrals of middle ages; the sculpture which forms the capitals of Romanesque piers, or which coyly hides itself in the gigantic portals of western or transeptal fa9ades: stained glass which requires many a fatiguing climb up ladders, or winding round tourelles, or along the back of flying buttresses, many a serpent-like creeping through triforia, whence you look down on the pavement from a giddy height; while, close to the ribs and bosses of the vaulting, you marvel at the care bestowed by the artist on the House of God in tho'se parts which not one eye out of twenty thousand will ever behold. Thus, in Swedish cathedrals, you shall see the heavenly battlemen...
