Gothic Revival

Gothic Revival is an architectural and artistic movement that emerged in the 19th century, inspired by the medieval Gothic style of the 12th to 16th centuries. Characterized by features like pointed arches, intricate stone carvings, and soaring spires, it aimed to revive the craftsmanship and spiritual aspects of Gothic design. This movement influenced not only churches and cathedrals but also homes, universities, and public buildings. Prominent examples include the Palace of Westminster in London and the cathedrals in Cologne and Cologne. Gothic Revival reflects a fascination with the past and a desire for beauty and grandeur in architecture.
