11:21 pm
of the same forms and hence the same blocks of stone. but what really appealed to the bishop and canons was the size of these rose windows, 13 meters in diameter, the largest in all of christendom. the 2 facades of my transcript had to be entirely disassembled in order to achieve this feat. jolanda shows wager was risky, football he's to sylvie, would have shows he taking the risk. the builders who could meet this challenge still had to be found for the time. is that changed the, the architecture initiated a century earlier in paris had spread to easy friends where it took on its main focus from cigna, which is to say, the french, the, the for i was imitated everywhere now. well beyond the kingdoms

11:24 pm
show had rekindled the flame of my building site after the era of stone and wood. i was now entering that of metal and glass. what had these young builders measured? the scope was the task ahead? not only would they have to compete with nature what they had to move quickly to catch the other people's unaware the following jones plans, stone cutters choose what the blocks for the $33.00 that would hold the immense window in lieu ben smithy, the craftsmanship, the iron armatures that will allow the rose window to resist the attacks of the, with the the tron. so it's north facade rises before they're on the 1st panels of glass

police gods. this harlot was conjuring up site to to see where she's a witch. what, what a young woman's would be against the cannons, accusations, witchcraft was punishable by death. the reputation of the old master didn't change a thing. the tragedy got the better of his fragile house. that's with the end, the dream of a rose and the life of a young woman. the
11:28 pm
h. follow only which the craftsman were a brotherhood. the young woman was one of the s. as for the horrible cannon, people say he threw himself from my towers out of the only one thing mattered from my buildings, that the return of his daughter would restore the old masters house. but it was too late. the no matter that glass working was for bitten to women. like most of the other occupations of the cathedral, the glass makers, daughter would show the error of this stupid room. she would learn to paint in great homes, the faces of kings, the fulls of their clothes. she had attended the best school.
11:29 pm
11:30 pm
i like to say that the newest rose is the daughter of love. like grace, the in 1250. it begins to radiate. it's magical light. it is the largest in all of christendom. the 20 years later, the 2nd rose window will bloom on myself facade. a visitor during the middle ages describes them so wonderful that the soul can not help but contemplate the it is the year 1270. i'm a little over 100 years old and my construction is about to finish. the time has come to make my voice heard. the bells of bronze giants. the small ones which people call the sparrows weigh 500 kilos.
11:31 pm

11:32 pm
regions will live to the rhythm of my heart. the i will sound when it is time to wake up time to stop work the i will sound the great hours of the history of the . i would like to tell you a beautiful story about a cathedral. loved by the humble, pampered by the powerful i could boast of the splendor of my choirs. great panels, sculpted by the emaciated of the 14th century, the notre them majestic protective sailing the stormy seas of history. the centuries later,
11:33 pm
grateful kings will offer me their infinitely graceful marbles. the oldest beauty distracts us from the tragedy that is on the phone. the the admiration that once surrounded me, how slowly disappeared the in the 16th century. the ax found my architecture would henceforth be referred to by a scornful term cossick, meaning barbarous and primitive. the eye would henceforth live in the shadow of other monuments. after the time of cathedrals, came the time of palaces, marvels of the renaissance in the valley div, with the builder's new master pieces,

the then it was the majestic cemetery, a vast size which would out showing so good. but in 1789. the french revolution upset this old world. it brought tremendous hope to the people that proved a difficult ordeal for monuments. the period of uncertainty began for churches like myself. they started by removing my bowels. the young republic needed their bronze to cast account and i was forced to open my eyes. i also embodied the past from which the revolution wanted to make a clean break. even worse, i was linked to the monarchy, to the king who had just been decapitated. in the year,

1793. my fate is in the hands of a man named byron an entrepreneur who switched to a lucrative sector. destruction don't think that i was the victim of blind vandalism. baron followed a program established in high places, no symbol of the despised time of kings, and feudalism must remain to demolish. it provided an estimate. everything had to be quantified down to the restoration of the square, which would be damaged by the following statues. the wise man to pull some of the capitated like so many others. my persecutors, spear thick black paint on his own splendid stained glass windows to illuminate flo,
11:36 pm
the lease and grounds. the, the art and memory of the middle ages was being wiped out beneath by brands impassive game. this grim undertaking took nearly 10 months. for a time, i was transformed into a temple of reason, to welcome the new revolutionary religion. but nothing could be done. i no longer had a room the. the authorities intervene solely as a matter of public health. the tatters from my gown of stone are sold at auction for a discount to serve as ballast the buyers name is beatrice. he has 24 hours to clear up the promises.
11:37 pm
sometimes history plays tricks on us. go on. i put some effort into it. we don't have much time. on that summer night in 1796 in paris. the courtyard of a private mansion hosted or rather mysterious ceremony go the remains of my statues, had ended up in the hands of the stuff and slowest the. they may twos to shelter them from the stones of history, the in 18 o 4. i even believe that my past glory had returned with 15000 deaths for an

11:39 pm
why would i escape this fate of so many other ancient monument? the be home precious to me. inches ruins have a beauty of their own like fossils. they however, within the memory of their past glory but the 19th century would not be migrating because one man rebelled. during his long visits, he would mamma words of hope. i was his vast symphony of stones, the colossal work of an entire people, the this man who was indignant about my salary shade is no more than a poet. but he believes in the power of the way.

11:41 pm
a major restoration of the cathedral of paris. the giant project was entrusted to 2 young architects. here's the 1st one, a certain eugene view lane, the duke. he's barely 30 years old with little experience, but a confidence that is disconcerting. to believe him, he knows what a gothic cathedral is better than maurice to sally that eugene would take it as a favor if you look in our office, it's wonderful of let's go. history has somewhat neglected his colleague and mentor jombateeste last year. but in the eyes of the commission, he was the more qualified of the 2 i just came from the commission there into the aspect. but they would like to know how much all of this will cost that's not scan
11:42 pm
them. now. i've just had 2 or 3 ideas that i absolutely must discuss with you and was all these new ideas. large scale work would begin once again, but to be honest, i didn't find this strange. do oh, entirely reassuring with like you could clearly see the marks on the screen to fix it. in spite of everything, it stood for 6 centuries. the what a pleasure to see the teeming activity of a building side once more. my course of the scaffolding, the warm aroma of the forge, the music of chisels against stone. all the just choose that the craftsman of pass down over the center. the good carry on the priority is to reinforce everything that is collapsing to replace
11:43 pm
ailing stones with brand new blocks. during this 19th century marked by inequality, elite artisans rub elbows with the crowd of laborers who sacrifice their health for our patients. the oldest poverty within badly says tom, we found something 6 centuries of building, modification and destruction had made me an enigma making sense of this puzzle would require the skill of a surgeon and the mind of a detective. this is how the only duke turn the entire procession against him was starting to like him. this 19th century man who spoke of the middle ages as though he had lived at the time the
11:44 pm
since childhood. this brilliant draftsman dreamed of knights castles and gothic churches. the, during the course of his travels, he had gathered tremendous knowledge which he was now putting to use for me by redesigning their ornamentation that disappeared the blood when sources were lacking, peterson hesitate to give his imagination free reign. he had such an intimate knowledge of gothic art that he was convinced it's spirit came flooding back into his drawing. thousands of drawings, the that's how the lady duke began to cover. my facade was entirely personal creations, the worried expression,
11:45 pm
southern faces threatening diagram, the elite 1847. after 3 years of construction, the tail is already empty. they were able to reinforce the sections that were collapsing. new statues were placed in the gallery of kings. but it's a far cry from the promises of the 2 architects who would announce the reworking of the windows and rows windows and the construction of a sa, christy. anger was rumbling in the capital in 1848 driven by misery and a thirst for liberty. for reasons rose up once more against him on the so it would be the century of
11:46 pm
great revolution. the i had already seen 3 forms of government since my restoration began monarchy, a short lived republic. and the 2nd down by which swore by a single disturbing word. madame the capital shook beneath the largest building project in its history. by order of napoleon, the 3rd baron houseman, cut avenues and boulevards through the city. my old paris had had its day the what would be kind of me in this new city, the someone would have to plead my case if construction were to resume
11:47 pm
until now. my architects had skilfully navigated the changes in government, but they were not in favor under the i'm buy a. we have is go down in history is the to weather vanes always on the side of power. but and certainly they've shown bad taste. do we really have a choice? we're not going to stop here. to charm the emperor a view lane to do the transform himself into a theater decorator rotates building builds with canopies heavy wall hangings. the architect proposed to per service should be to host major imperial ceremonies. his drawings hit, the bulls, nicoli and the 3rd and empress eugene became infatuated with these new gothic
11:48 pm
visions. the resumption of work became an affair of state. the money that had been so sorely lacking would no longer be a problem. the it is the year 1853 and my architects now have car loans. the listening only to themselves view unable to do can last who will intervene everywhere. there isn't a single block, a single stitch or a loop of my stone lace work that is in scrutinized during their restoration. the despite protest, the gallery windows are restored according to view. need a duke's wishes. the flying buttresses are completely reworked and crowned with pinnacles
11:49 pm
the they said my was bristling was an army of gargoyles criticism mounts as you need to do, consulted for inventing a cathedral that never existed. instead of restoring it, you may be surprised, but i can imagine the statues of adam and eve, the level of the rose window, an excellent idea. the restoration turns into an obsession view later duke is not content with reinforcing the south rose window. he orders it to be entirely disassembled and turned by a half the p. reconfigure is each of the chapels as a new railings cast and bills as a christy, for which he designs all of the painted decorations and furniture down to the least iron where she also designs the liturgical objects,
11:50 pm
including the really key for the holy ground, locked by st. louis, which was finally given to me the just 5 to use after resuming work. one final project remains building the medieval spire above the pillars of my transcript. it had to be brought down a century earlier due to its damaged condition. the architects of spend a long time observing my framework, studying the remains of my old spire amid this jungle of centuries old beams. they are familiar with its modest shape through numerous drawings,

the interview of all they had accomplished. it was a small undertaking, but fate decided otherwise. the on july 15th 1857 last to suddenly dies. agnes de green told his but got them on the door. no, no, dispatcher, she too would not see his finished work agnes day. but my debt to him is no less. great. don't know nobody's, but who remembers on that piece last year the can recognize among the kings in my gallery, the face of this generous crash. the
11:52 pm
really do kind of lost a friend and someone who kindly contradicted him rebuilding misfire was all that was left. but my last architect was alone. facing this century tone between his taste for the past and an insatiable thirst from the dandy. my restoration work seemed anachronistic. at a time when the industrial revolution was promising, the newer of other wonders when long metal beams stretched in air restrictions, when large glass domes began to replace the stained glass of churches. how to resist the temptation of matter, the ease had already intruded upon the framework of the venerable shots. we could see joe,
11:53 pm
which had been the victim of the fire. but so the duke that was an insult to the genius of my abilities. he would make my spire out of hood just as they did in the middle ages. but it would be full of a grace and virtual city that move east to sally himself would never have dreamed up the view. new dukes carpenters carried on the rituals of the 1st builders. they took the art of drawing lines to new heights. for the uninitiated, they are no more than strange strokes esoteric geometries. but in these drawings, the initiated could read the farm dimensions and precise location of every being
11:54 pm

11:55 pm
one of the most fascinating architects of his time. so he was not simply content with reinventing gothic architecture view lane. the duke turned me into a book of images, one that enduringly shaped your representation of the middle ages. the my 54 cameras which burst forth from his imagination of the sisters of quasi moto grotesque and mac, the, the public was thrilled by his creatures, but without really understanding what drove the all powerful architect one of them would become my emblem. a melancholy age, the steam,
11:56 pm
and the stritch, who watches the capitals agitation with bewilderment. the you may be wondering what i think your viewing later duke's great restoration, positive a trial or a resurrection with something else an encounter. and like every genuine encounter, it changed both of us the the view needed you can didn't just revise my past plan is uncompromising quest for

beauty and perfection was also a tribute to all those that had preceded him. to the genius to the courage to the dairy, the dreams which people sadler, the remember those who built the miraculously survived the sharks of the 20th century to almost disappear in a mundane fire. yet i've never been closer to you.
