Yes, Gothic Architecture and Art, also known as Medieval Architecture and Art, is the product of multiple generations of influence. Characteristics of Gothic Architecture include the pointed arch, ribbed vault and flying buttress. Spanning from the 12th to the 16th century Gothic architecture, also termed "French Style" flourished and peaked during the high and late medieval period.
