Romanesque and Gothic art and architecture through Google Earth

Your chapter 4c reading from this week introduced you to the styles of Romanesque and Gothic art and architecture. Unfortunately, we are not able to visit the original Gothic buildings here in Southern California, but we can explore them virtually through Google Earth!
To earn points for this discussion, complete the bulleted tasks listed below.
First, review the Image ppt for this week, paying special attention to the slides on Gothic art.
Then, visit Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris via Google Earth (https://earth(dot)google(dot)com/web/@48.85235775,2.3526599,21.89948494a,1443.08582368d,35y,51.94783513h,45t,-0r/data=Ck0aSxJFCiUweDQ3ZTY3MWUzOWRkNDQ4YWY6MHhlOTVkOGVjODJjZmFmNjQzGb0tojcmbUhAIdBefTz0zQJAKgpOb3RyZSBEYW1lGAIgAQ) and take a look around the exterior and interior of the building.*You'll need to launch Google Earth through Google Chrome as your browser.* To get to street view, find and click on the person icon in the bottom-left corner:

In a well-edited paragraph describe your reactions/thoughts/feelings while virtually exploring a Gothic cathedral. Were you able to make a connection to the theories of the original architects and their desire to replicate their idea of heaven? Their connection to their religion? Was it effective?
As always, I encourage you to comment on each other's posts.
