Summary, etc. "Brick and Marble in the Middle Ages" by George Edmund Street is a detailed account of the author's architectural journey through Northern Italy, focusing on the medieval period. Street embarks on this journey with the intent to study the evolution of Gothic architecture in Italy, particularly how it diverges from the Northern European styles he was familiar with. The narrative begins with his travels from England through France, noting the architectural highlights of Paris, such as Notre Dame and the Sainte Chapelle, before proceeding to Basel. Street's observations are meticulous, capturing the essence of the buildings he encounters, from the grand cathedrals to the humble village churches. He is particularly interested in the use of brick and marble, materials that define the Italian Gothic style, and how they are employed both structurally and decoratively. Street's journey is not just a physical one but also an intellectual exploration of architectural principles, such as the use of the pointed arch and the integration of sculpture and painting in architectural design. His reflections on the differences between Northern and Italian Gothic architecture provide valuable insights into the cultural and historical contexts that shaped these styles. Street's work is a testament to the enduring beauty and complexity of medieval architecture and its relevance to contemporary architectural practice.
