Slim structure of the Cathedral, aspiring to heaven is visible from afar. This was a new extraordinary style for Europe. The large oil painting link will show all its grandeur.

This creation became the phenomenon for new Europe, and people from all over the world still admire this masterpiece that was created many centuries ago but we still strive to Paris to see how it looks in reality.Artworks with these legendary plots would look great on large-scale picture.
