Italian Gothic architecture

Gothic architecture appeared in Italy in the 12th century. The architectural ardite solutions and technical innovations of the French Gothic cathedrals never appeared: Italian architects preferred to keep the construction tradition established in the previous centuries. Aesthetically, in Italy the vertical development was rarely important. A possible timeline of Gothic architecture in Italy can comprise: <br />* an initial development of the Cistercian architecture <br />* an "early Gothic" phase (c. 1228-1290) <br />* the "mature Gothic" of 1290-1385 <br />* a late Gothic phase from 1385 to the 16th century, with the completion of the great Gothic edifices begun previously, as the Milan Cathedral and San Petronio Basilica in Bologna.
