The Gothic period, spanning from the 12th to the 16th centuries, is marked by significant contributions to architecture, sculpture, and painting. Its most notable architectural innovation is the development of the pointed arch, ribbed vault, and flying buttress, allowing for taller structures and larger stained glass windows that flooded cathedrals with light. This style emphasized verticality and grandeur, exemplified by iconic cathedrals like Notre-Dame and Chartres. Additionally, Gothic art often featured intricate sculptures and illuminated manuscripts, reflecting religious themes and the era's cultural values.
Gothic art began in the Medieval period with architecture and sculptures. Gothic art today is very different from the art back then.

Gothic
There wasn't a "Gothic" period in America since it didn't exist in the middle ages when it first took place. The Gothic movement in America brought many buildings and art in the early 1920's. These were copied from earlier Gothic art in Europe. Gothic design came to America as "Gothic Revival" also known as collegiate revival.Collegiate Gothic Revival is a subgenre of Gothic Revival that began in 1894. The most famous building to mark the beginning of this revival is Pembroke Hall on the campus of Bryn Mawr College. Gothic design and art was injected into university and college architectural design during the 20th century and remained popular for many American and European university designs.
