European Gothic

European Gothic is a style of architecture and art from roughly the 12th to 16th centuries, characterized by tall, slender structures, pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses that allow for larger windows and more light. This style aimed to evoke spirituality and grandeur, often seen in cathedrals and churches like Notre-Dame. Gothic art also features intricate sculptures and stained glass that depict biblical stories and heavenly themes. Overall, Gothic architecture combines engineering innovation with artistic expression to create awe-inspiring, luminous spaces that connect the divine and human experience.
