Basilica de Santa Maria del Mar

This is the only example of a church entirely in the Catalan Gothic style and was built between 1329 and 1383 in only 55 years, unheard of in the Middle Ages.

Beautiful capture of these wonderful gothic lancet windows. V. By the by, the main body of Salisbury Cathedral in England was built in 38 years between 1220 and 1258.

nice balance between the dark stone and the colours in the glass with maybe just enough gilt to assuage our guilt
