Very interesting presentation Dr. Shafe. I like the way the visuals have been re-organized to give you a larger presence. This feels more natural I think. I would be very interested in a presentation focusing specifically on stained galss. It has always fascinated me and I think that some of the artists are among the greatest artists in any medium, although I suppose that many are unknown? The reconstruction of Notre-Dame would also be a fascinating subject. Merci.
Thank you for the feedback. I thought the "head on every slide" worked better with architecture but I will try it again later with a series of paintings. Stained glass is very tricky as it is so hard to represent the overall feel of a large stained glass window and hard to get high quality photographs of the individual panels.
@@LaurenceShafeThe best photographs I`ve ever seen of the inside of Notre-Dame are the ones I took years ago using colour slide film. The transparent nature of slides really works - much better than a flat reproduction in a book. Your lectures are very enjoyable.
The flamboyant gothic throughout Rouen is so exquisitely gorgeous. Could you please cover Spanish Gothic in greater detail, particularly cathedrals of: Burgos, Leon, Barcelona, Valencia, Valladolid, Toledo, Girona and Palma. As well as Plateresque and Isabelline gothic more generally.
Wonderful, comprehensive appreciation and explanation of the Gothic cathedral.
I have been saving this talk for a cozy autumn evening. Thank you so very much.
Thanks so much. I appreciate you starting in France for comparison and evolution of the gothic style.
sainte chapelle is crazy beautiful

English Gothic is special
