...formal dignity of the South is in it, no compromise with the fashionable standards of Renaissance art that Holbein surrendered to, and even Duerer did not escape. Instead, one finds all the intensity of the medieval religion of the North. Every work of Gruenewald has a religious subject.

It has been issued in a number of different inexpensive formars. "Mont-Saint Michel and Chartres" by the nature of its subject is a more technical and a more difficult book to read. It is an experience in aesthetics and the philosophy of aesthetics that is unrivalled by anything in any tongue; the "Stones of Venice" is uninteresting beside it, and it excels the ordinary artistic appreciation as Chartres itself excels Memorial...
