Excerpt from Summer Holidays Among the Glories of France: Her Cathedrals and Churches Burgundy, as between the Early English Of Wells Cathedral and the Yorkshire abbeys, the Perpendicular of Somerset and that of the Eastern Counties. The Soci�t� des Monuments Historiques has published an architectural map of France, Showing it to have been the home of no fewer than thirteen provincial styles. Most important among these are the style of the Ile de France or Domaine Royal; the Style of Normandy; those of Burgundy and Auvergne that of Provence; of Languedoc, Poitou, and Sain tonge, all included in Aquitania; the Angevine style, marking a small district on both sides the Loire between Aquitaine and Normandy; and. Lastly, though not a very important one, that of the extreme north-east bordering on the Rhine and Belgium. Gradually blending tints in lieu of sharp lines explain the boundaries of these styles, which in some instances overlap each other, for the influence Of each province was felt by its neigh bours, and this most forcibly in frontier regions.
