The term was coined in the early 19th century and then referred primarily to window tracery, but is now understood to apply to the style more broadly. The style has its roots in the royal London style and French Rayonnant Gothic, and is characterized by immense glazed surfaces, rectilinear apses, thick walls instead of the Continental buttressing system, and intricate decoration composed of lively geometric and organic forms. estil decorat Estilo decorado 2026-03-30 20:49:31
