Beauvais, East end of the cathedral, 1247, France
The choir is the most lofty in the world. " In the work which seems to me the great type of simple and masculne buttress structure, the apse of Beauvais, the pinnacles are altogether insignificant, and are evidently added just as exclusively to entertain the eye and lighten the aspect on the buttress as the slight shafts which are set on its angles. - Ruskin Date: 1904

EDITORS COMMENTS
Behold the awe-inspiring eastern end of Beauvais Cathedral in France, dating back to 1247. This architectural marvel, located in the northern region of Picardy, is renowned for its grandeur and historical significance. The east end of the cathedral, in particular, is a sight to behold, with its lofty choir holding the title of the most elevated in the world. The apse of Beauvais Cathedral is considered a prime example of simple and masculine buttress structure. The pinnacles, although seemingly insignificant, were added primarily to entertain the eye and lighten the appearance of the massive buttresses. This architectural approach is a testament to the balance between functionality and aesthetics that characterizes Gothic architecture. John Ruskin, a renowned art critic and social thinker, expressed his admiration for the Beauvais Cathedral in his book "The Stones of Venice," published in 1851. He regarded the cathedral as a masterpiece of simple and masculine design, with the pinnacles serving as mere decorative elements. The apse of Beauvais Cathedral stands as a symbol of the architectural innovation and artistic prowess of the Middle Ages. Its intricate design and historical significance continue to captivate visitors and scholars alike, making it a must-see destination for anyone interested in the rich history of European architecture.
