More about the book
The author's perspective on Moorish architecture highlights its monotony and lack of variety compared to Gothic styles, while also critiquing its absence of the dignity found in Greek or Renaissance forms. This viewpoint reflects a personal preference for architectural diversity and grandeur, suggesting that Moorish design may not resonate as deeply due to its repetitive nature.
