inimitable sideways sway

what the heck is an inimitable sideways sway? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.114.95.121 (talk) 15:22, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's how Sir Nikolaus Pevsner, in his inimitable writing style, described the stone effigies. His architectural history books are full of such descriptions! Hassocks5489 (tickets please!) 17:57, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The question was, what does it mean?Petethewhistle (talk) 20:24, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are the effigies semi-detached then? I'd also like to know what it means. Shir-El too 20:43, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, they are mounted on stone plinths. I interpret Pevsner's description as referring to the smooth, flowing lines with which they were carved, and the elegance they still have after more than six centuries (although they are a bit weathered, their details are still quite clear). Having said that, I'm no architectural historian, and Pevsner spent his life travelling around England looking at buildings and their contents; he didn't give praise lightly. Hope that helps a bit!
