Gothic Discussion

I reviewed Lindsay's blog for the Gothic era.  She talked about how she got a chance to visit Notre Dame when she studied abroad in Paris.  The way she described the Dome, made me feel like I was actually standing there looking at it myself.  The pictures she chose to use of the stained glass in the cathedral are beautiful and show the design of Gothic windows.  The next blog that I looked at was Melanie's.  Melanie has also had a chance to visit the Salisbury Cathedral of Gothic design in England.  She mentioned how most Gothic cathedrals are found in France, but they are all over Europe.  She used many pictures of the cathedral she visited in England. This cathedral is breathtaking and really shows good examples of ribbed vaults and pointed arches.
