Gothic Art

Gothic art was strong around 1100 A.D. to 1400 A.D. It began in France out of the Romanesque period in the mid-12th century, concurrent with Gothic architecture found in Cathedrals. By the late 14th century, it had evolved towards a more secular and natural style known as International Gothic, which continued until the late 15th century, where it evolved into Renaissance art. The primary Gothic art mediums were sculpture, panel painting, stained glass, fresco and illuminated manuscript.

Gothic art was known for its arched design of churches and stained glass.

Gothic sculpture was used to decorate the doorways of cathedrals and often showed figures and scenes from the Bible's Old Testament.

There was a Gothic Revival in the 18th and 19th centuries.
