. The English house, how to judge its periods and styles. Christ Church, Oxford, which is remarkablylike this, was built a few years before, andprobably by the same architect. There is alsoan interesting contrast between their dimensions.At Hampton Court the length is io6 feet by40 feet wide and 60 feet high ; while at ChristChurch, Oxford, the hall is eight feet longer, justequal in width, but eight feet less in height, sothere is little difference between them. The illustration by Joseph Nash does justiceto the Perpendicular windows and to the intri-cate roof. But there is a mistake in history.Wolsey is introduced ; and Hampton Court, sofar as this hall is concerned, has little connectionwith cardinals or with priests. Henry VIH.employed it for State ceremonies, as whenFrancis Gonzaga, Viceroy of Sicily, was enter-tained there, Christmas 1543 ; or for dancingwith Jane Seymour and Catherine Howard ; or, again, for banquets, and mummings, and masques.In later times plays were acted here, and thereis evidence to show that the company of actors. GOTHIC AND TUDOR HOMES 159 to which Shakespeare belonged gave several per-formances in this hall during the early years ofJames I. Mr. Law, speaking of the roof, paysa just tribute to its beautiful construction, butbelieves that the roof in Westminster Hall isgrander and more imposing, while those atCrosby Hall and Eltham Palace are purer intaste. On the other hand, they have not theelaborate and rich workmanship that givessplendour to King Henrys roof. But these comparisons are always unjust. Asa rule they imply defects when their real pur-pose is to point out characteristics ; and no twoworks of art by different men and of differenttypes can be sufficiently alike to justify a com-parison. The roof at Crosby Hall is certainlypure in taste, but there is nothing amiss on thatscore at Hampton Court, where a different effectwas aimed at with infinite care and success.* Again, there is much variety in Tudor workas well as much yigo
