## Commentary

Portugal&#39;s principal contribution to medieval architecture came in the 14th century. In the region south of Lisbon, significant buildings were constructed, notably the cloister of the cathedral of Évora, begun in 1350. Its four wings are all vaulted with steep rib vaults. A continuous longitudinal rib links the bays. The photo shows the cloister of Évora Cathedral.
