Question

“Savageness” is the first of this style’s six “moral elements” described by John Ruskin in The Stones of Venice. A building designed by Charles Barry and Augustus Pugin was inspired by an English type of this style called the Perpendicular. This style, whose revival was led by Eugène Viollet-le-Duc (“oo-JEN vee-oh-LAY luh dook”), succeeded the Romanesque. This style’s Rayonnant type was named for its characteristic large circular rose windows. This style’s ribbed vaults are based on pointed arches (10[1])that also inform the design of its flying buttresses. For 10 points, name this medieval architectural style exemplified by Paris’ Notre Dame cathedral. ■END■
