Archbishop Suger: The Father of Gothic Architecture Abbot Suger wanted to flood his church with light, which came from God. The conventional round arches used in churches created great outward pressure and required exceptionally thick walls for support.

Suger did not want walls weakened by very large windows. Abbot Suger’s masons experimented with pointed arches that created a more vertical thrust, which did not require massive walls.

Flying Buttresses: supporting the walls so that windows can let in God’s light.

Flying buttresses Buttresses support the enormous weight of the walls. They transfer the weight out to the side so that the building will not collapse. The buttresses make higher walls and ceilings possible.

Creation of stained glass Earliest windows are from around 1,000 AD The only colors available in were yellow, purplish-red, green, blue and copper-red Glass was fitted in lead frames to form a scene Glass pictures were fitted in masonry and filled with mortar.

Stained glass instructs Jonah is being forced into the whale. This story is told to re-inforce the message that the resurrection occurred three days after Jesus was in the earth. The scene is surrounded by arabesques

Windows were expensive Adam and Eve are shown being tempted by Satan. The wealthy couple who gave the money for the window are at the bottom of the picture praying.

Rose Windows are the apex of stained glass development Circular mandalas radiate with sacred medieval imagery. The primary subject of the great roses is the Virgin and Child. Many other themes are featured: the life of Christ and the apostles and tales from the Bible. Less common features are medieval heraldry and symbols of the seasons or the astrological zodiac.

Gargoyles Originally these sculptures were designed as elaborate waterspouts directing the rains away from the fragile architecture therefore avoiding damage to the masonry. Superstition held that the gargoyle frightened away evil spirits by appearing more hideous and foreboding than any creature that would dare to enter the building.
