19 FRENCH High Gothic Chartres Cathedral Reims Cathedral Amiens Cathedral Notre Dame Cathedral Much of the 1200s Tall Cathedrals that focused on artistic imagery as well as height

20 FRENCH Rayonnant Emphasis on more light and windows… Abbey of St. Denis (below) St. Chappelle (right)

21 FRENCH Late Gothic or FLAMBOYANT style Very dramatic s-curved or flame tracery

22 ENGLISH ‘Early English' Period (1175-1250) Wells Cathedral, below, became Britain's first all-pointed and all-Gothic cathedral when it was rebuilt in 1175. It is considered one of the most beautiful of Britain's cathedrals, and one of the most influential as well. Its style became the template of the new trend in British cathedrals.

23 ENGLISH ‘Decorated' Period (125- 1300) The main characteristic of this era is the ‘bar tracery'. Here, designs in masonry ranging from the simple to the flamboyant, are set on to windows. The result is that the stonework supports of the building can become lighter. Lincoln Cathedral, England

26 ENGLISH ‘Perpendicular' Period (1350-1400) This style of Gothic architecture in England is referred to as ‘Perpendicular' because of its stark, rigid exterior lines. There are elements of an Egyptian influence due to the frequent visits many English merchants, artists, and pilgrims were making to the east. New vaulting techniques came into use that were more decorative in nature; some of these were the net vault of Gloucester Cathedral pictured below. The Perpendicular stage in Gothic became the standard for cathedral building for nearly two hundred years, or until the Reformation. Gloucester Cathedral, England
