Four Centered Arch

It's been a while since I paid much attention to the variety of arch shapes that are to be found on older buildings all over Beirut.

Based on a diagram that I swiped from a nice website called "Looking at Buildings", I'd call this one a four centered arch.

Do you agree?

  1. I guess so but is seems to have more centres than that.

  2. Oh thanks for this website! I really need that vocabulary.

    We were expecting snow today but had only wind.
