Historical Context
Italian cities had extreme wealth due to trade (Florence, Milan, Venice)
European architecture was traditionally about height and light (Gothic style)
Buildings were designed by master Masons who oversaw construction
Strong influence of the Pope and Catholicism (most of the buildings I’m going to be talking about are churches)
