In contrast, Gothic churches featured flying buttresses, pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and large stained glass windows, creating a sense of verticality and lightness.

Italian mendicant churches from the Gothic period are typically distinguished by their simplicity, use of pointed arches, and large windows that allow for ample natural light. These churches often feature tall, slender columns and have a more austere and less ornate decoration compared to other Gothic churches. Additionally, they are known for their emphasis on preaching and communal worship, reflecting the values of the mendicant orders who used these churches as places of ministry.
