Chief among the works in which these improvements are evident are the Cathedral of Soissons, built for the greater part during the first years of the thirteenth century, the southern transept of which, however, was begun soon after 1175 ; the Cathedral of Chartres, re- built after the conflagration of 1195 and almost entirely completed in 1220; the choir of the Cathedral of Rheims, the completion of which was delayed until the close of the century; the Cathedral of Amiens, built between 1220 an...d 1288; and the Choir of Beauvais, referable to the period between 1225 and 1269, but much modified by the renovation made after the fall of some parts of the structure in the year 1284. Besides these important edifices, which are to be considered as representatives of the highest development of the FRANCE. 497 Gothic style, we have to mention the Cathedral of Bourges (Fig. 294). Its reconstruction was determined upon as early as 1172, and Notre- Dame at Paris was chosen as the model for the five -aisled plan and for the arrangement of the choir; the execution, however, was not undertaken until the beginning of the thirteenth century.
