These draft studies have been written as if all carvings were by an individual whereas they can equally be analysed as template modes employed by a number of carvers. The more personal approach was necessitated by the complexity of the data. The drafts will be reconsidered after I have added the rib vault material to the database. |
Capitals for Glennes, Saint-Georges
X
The building sequence is based on my on-site analysis of the construction history,
using the techniques developed on the cathedral of Chartres called toichology, and described in a number of publications.
The analysis of some of the smaller churches are more approximate than I would like, and need further analysis.
I have used 'phase' rather than 'campaign' to to identify a contiguous zone with similar elements.
A campaign would be defined by recognisable breaks and construction joints in the fabric: there may be a number of phases within a campaign.
One benefit is that separate programs by subcontractors, such as carvers, may be isolated, which is particularly useful in complex sections, such as portals.
Every phase has been assigned to a decade, so there may be more than one phase in a decade.
While this is certainly imperfect, it will allow us to explore all the data, including costs, across time.
This is an on-going process, so as the data continues to be analyzed, the chronology and costing analysis will be further refined, and the synopsis updated.
Clicking on any of the decade graphics will display all buildings that had work being done during that decade.

Phase 4 - 1160s [1160] - north-w
capitals to north nave aisle entry on crossing side, the level is higher on the north side and the coursing through the sill suggests this side was constructed with the north chapel.
Rationale for dating : Each phase from 4 to 11 given an annual date for convenience. More than one may have been carved in a year, or there may have been gaps in time, but the 1160s suits all the carving modes and individuals isolated here.

Phase 8 - 1160s [1165] - n chapel (b)
north chapel built hard up against earlier apse over older plinths; includes transept wall to north side of nave entry and arch over [if the same master built upper courses on each side possibly from caps and imposts, but not vault); the south vault was earlier, north later with a joint over north imposts; the phases of construction were complex in many small steps.

Phase 10 - 1160s [1167] - nave
perhaps contempranelousy, nave in small steps; caps and starter arches on aisle sides while two large square piers do not encase smaller ones as there is a corbel projecting on the south side of one.

Phase 12 - 1160s [1169] - narthex (d)
narthex with stairs and dado to arches over, includes capitals of entry into nave and west door; the arrangement of en delit shafts show the two stages in setting out; the similarities in the stairs and its windows suggest one master, but small details suggest this was a 3 phase construction, with about 8-10 courses in each.
