minus-squareJohnnyEnzyme@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 month agoThanks! I guess I didn’t realise that Gothic architecture could be so very elaborate and even creative. “Gothic” is kind of a confusing word for me, though. I can think of probably four solid meanings for it, only two (AFAIK) with any direct relation. :S @voodoocode@feddit.org
