How the ‘Middle Ages’ got its name, and its bad press in the Renaissance…

Giorgio Vasari (1550) Lives of the most eminent architects, painters and sculptors: ‘there is another sort of architectural work called German which is very different in its proportions and its decorations from both the antique and the modern. Its characteristics are not adopted these days by any of the leading architects, who consider them monstrous and barbaric, wholly ignorant of any accepted ideas of sense or order… This manner of building was invented by the Goths, who put up structures in this way after all the ancient buildings had been destroyed and all the architects killed in the wars. It was they who made vaults with pointed arches… and then filed up the whole of Italy with their accursed buildings.’ Quoted in Brooks, Chris (1999) The Gothic revival London: Phaidon: 10

The Gothic Revival The Romantic period: yearning for the imaginary past, for faith and imagination Caspar David Friedrich City at Moonrise 1817
