Gothic architecture in France, England, and Italy . ial feature in Normandy is the central .Centraltower, which in England is a regular constituent part ofour great churches, but is very unusual in other partsof France. It occurs at Caen in both the great abbeys, at Rouen in the cathedral, S. Ouen and S. Maclou, atBayeux, Lisieux, Coutances, Norrey, Bretteville, andnumerous other churches both great and small, and isgenerally open from below as a lantern with a fine effect. But with these peculiarities the Gothic of Normandy Lisieuxdid in the main follow the style of France. The finecathedral of S. Pierre at Lisieux, which was begun afterthe fire of 1136 by Bishop Arnoult (1143—1181) andfinished by his successor before 1218, is designed quitein the French manner, and the interior is very like thatof Notre Dame at Paris (Fig. 53). It is transeptal, andhas a nave of eight bays with pointed arches carried onstout monocylindric columns. The capitals are tall, withsimple foliage a crochet, except some at the west end 140 NORMANDY [CH. VIII. Fig- 53-From the Building News en. vm] NORMANDY 141 which are more richly designed1. The four straight bays Lisieuxof the choir are similar. The triforium has two lightsunder an including arch : the shield is blank except inthe two eastern bays of the choir where it is pierced witha trefoil. The chevet consists of seven narrow bays;the first two straight, the rest in a semicircle. The workin this part seems later and I should imagine is part ofthe restoration by Bishop Pont-de-1Arche after the fireof 1226, who added the side chapels of the ambulatory.The arches are richly moulded, whereas in the choir andnave they have only a roll on the angle of the order, andthe detail of the triforium with its slender colonnettes, and the quatrefoil piercings in the shieldis much more delicate and advanced thanthat of the rest of the building. The apsecolumns are doubled with small shafts setbetween them on each side (Fig. 54), andthe radiating rib
