Architecture of Silence - Cistercian Abbeys of France

Martin Filler, writing in the New York Times, calls the photographs "hauntingly beautiful . . . The arched entrance to the south aisle of the church at le Thoronet, captured in one of Heald’s most powerful photographs, perfectly illustrates Corbusier’s famous definition of architecture as 'the skillful, correct and magnificent play of volumes assembled in light'. It also brings to mind his admission that although 'I have not experienced the miracle of faith, I have often known the miracle of inexpressible space'"
