Description: ~Gothic Architecture~ Vintage Book Collection (box picture for illustration only - NOT SUPPLIED) Gothic architecture flourished during the high and late medieval period. It evolved from Romanesque architecture and was succeeded by Renaissance architecture. Originating in 12th century France and lasting into the 16th century, Gothic architecture was known during the period as "the French Style", with the term Gothic first appearing during the latter part of the Renaissance. Its characteristic features include the pointed arch, the ribbed vault and the flying buttress. Itis most familiar as the architecture of many of the cathedrals, abbeys and churches of Europe. It is also the style of many castles, palaces, town halls, universities and to a lesser extent, private dwellings.It is in the great churches that the Gothic style was expressed most powerfully, its characteristics lending themselves to appeal to the emotions. A great number of ecclesiastical buildings remain from this period, of which even the smallest are often structures of distinction while many of the larger cathedrals are considered priceless works of art. A series of Gothic revivals began in 18th century England, spread through 19th-century Europe and continued, largely for ecclesiastical and university structures, into the 20th century.
