This book describes the development of Gothic in all its diversity, sacral art and architecture, secular and private examples, urban development and technical knowledge. A very fine book translated from the German. Large format, over 500 pages, well illustrated with splendid colour photography. Gothic art originated around 1140 in the Ile-de-France and from there spread throughout Europe. The awesome diversity of a fascinating epoch of European art and culture is presented in this wide-ranging illustrated volume. It presents the history of Gothic architecture from its origins and blossoming in 12th-century France through its dissemination in all of Europe; and an in-depth discussion of the most diverse art forms, including painting, sculpture, metalwork and book illumination. It includes individual essays on special themes such as heresy or the Cathars, the development of cities or the Papal Palace in Avignon. It is richly illustrated with photographs, most of which were taken specifically for this book. We pack our books properly and ship daily from the UK.…
