Architecture
Gothic art was a style of medieval art that developed in Northern France
Gothic Architecture is an architectural style that was prevalent in Europe from the
late
12th to
the 16th century, during the High and Late
Middle Ages, surviving into the 17th and 18th centuries in some areas.[1] It evolved from Romanesque
architecture and
was succeeded by Renaissance architecture.
It originated in the Îlede-France and Picardy regions of northern France. The style at the time was sometimes known as opus Francigenum (lit. French work);[2] the term Gothic was first applied contemptuously during the later Renaissance, by those ambitious to revive the architecture of classical antiquity.
