سؤال 69

A visitor enters a large medieval church and sees pointed arches, ribbed vaults and flying buttresses carrying the thrust of the roof outside the walls. Which style is this, and what did the earlier style look like instead?

Gothic; the earlier Romanesque style used round arches and thick, heavy wallsپاسخ درست
Romanesque; the earlier Gothic style used round arches and thick, heavy walls
Gothic; the earlier style used classical columns and triangular pediments
Romanesque; the earlier style used pointed arches and slender stone ribs

توضیح

Pointed arches, ribbed vaulting and buttresses that carry the load outside the wall are the marks of the later of the two great church styles, which grew out of a heavier manner using round arches, thick walls and small windows. The reversed pairing fails because it puts the later features into the earlier style, which would make the same style the ancestor of the forms that replaced it.
