Partial view of the brick façade of the Holy Spirit Hospital in Lübeck, showing the entrance to the church and the copper bell tower, all in red brick Gothic style. A staggered pointed arch serves as the entrance, with a round window on either side. Above are three pointed arch windows, through which a hall-like structure can be glimpsed. This is followed by four small round-arched blind windows with a large clock in the middle, with golden hands and numerals. Above it rises the copper-clad green bell tower with a long, pointed dome. The bells are clearly visible in the pews. The church entrance is flanked by two slender towers reminiscent of minarets. Cloudy, grey sky.

image of arched Romanesque windows (no glass) in a 13th century monestary in southern France. Each arch has a supporting column in the middle that creates two 'windows' and then a round 'porthole' above the column. The view is down an arcade where seven of these window arches can be seen.

Medieval Bodies by Jack Hartnell, 2018

Life, Death and Art in the Middle Ages
Dripping with blood and gold, fetishized and tortured, gateway to earthly delights and point of contact with the divine, forcibly divided and powerful even beyond death, there was no territory more contested than the body in the medieval world.

#books
#nonfiction
#history
#Medieval
#art
#body

In Medieval Bodies, art historian Jack Hartnell uncovers the complex and fascinating ways in which the people of the Middle Ages thought about, explored and experienced their physical selves. In paintings and reliquaries that celebrated the - sometimes bizarre - martyrdoms of saints, the sacred dimension of the physical left its mark on their environment. In literature and politics, hearts and heads became powerful metaphors that shaped governance and society in ways that are still visible today. And doctors and natural philosophers were at the centre of a collision between centuries of sophisticated medical knowledge, and an ignorance of physiology as profound as its results were gruesome.

The Black Gate https://www.flickr.com/photos/woolamaloo_gazette/55073003979

Built by Henry III to extend #Newcastle Castle's fortifications, essentially a barbican

The Black Gate 01

The Black Gate, which originally sported a portcullis and drawbridge, was created on the orders of Henry III and constructed from 1247 to 1250 CE, to supplement the adjacent Castle (see previous photos), essentially a large barbican for the castle. You'll notice it isn't actually black - the name derives from the 1600s, when it was no longer being used as a defensive structure and had been let out to tenants, the most prominent of whom was a merchant called Patrick Black. In the years between then and the 1800s it was allowed to fall into serious decline, before the Society of Antiquaries of Newcastle leased it and set about restoring it, thankfully, or we may not have had this today. As I mentioned in the previous set of pictures of the castle keep, the two structures were divided by a Victorian railway viaduct in the 1800s (when the area around them was a bit of a slum), and since that carries the main Edinburgh to London rail line to this day, they are still divided by it. There's a small but lovely museum in the Black Gate - shout out to the staff there, who were very nice and friendly
