I suppose those buttresses with arch-ways let through them are technically flying-buttresses, although their super-structure looks very sturdy work indeed for what we expect of the more usual gracile flying-buttress! The rhythmic proportions and the elegant clerestory make this a very handsome church indeed.
Such beautiful architecture. I really appreciate you taking me along on these excursions.
