482 FRENCH ARCHITECTURE. Pakt II, Generally speaking, the cloisters and other ecclesiastical adjuncts are so similar to those at Provence, as given in the last chapter, that a separate description of them is not needed here. They are all of the columnar style, supporting small arches on elegant capitals of the most varied and elaborate designs, evincing that delicate feeling so prevalent in the south, Avhich prevented any approach to that barbarism so common farther north whenever the architects attempted anything beyond the common range of decoration. The same feeling pervades the tombs, monuments, and domestic architecture of this ])art of France, making them all far more worthy of study in every minute detail than has yet been attempted. The woodcut (No. 348) represents one small example of a tomb built into a wall behind the church of St. Pierre at Toulouse. It is one of those graceful little bits of architecture which meet one at every turn in the pleasant South, where the people have an innate feeling for art which displays itself in the smallest as well as in the most important works.
