Lancet window on the wall of Parochial Church in Fiera di Primiero. #231783123
Description
A lancet window is a tall, narrow window with a pointed arch at its top. It acquired the `lancet` name from its resemblance to a lance. Instances of this architectural element are typical of Gothic church edifices of the earliest period. Lancet windows may occur singly, or paired under a single moulding, or grouped in an odd number with the tallest window at the centre.The windows are divided into segments by stone mullions and tracery. Fiera di Primiero, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy.
