Brabantine Gothic, occasionally called Brabantian Gothic, is a significant variant of Gothic architecture that is typical for the Low Countries. It surfaced in the first half of the 14th century at Saint Rumbold's Cathedral in the City of Mechelen.〔 name=SRK>〕〔 name=TIB_1>〕〔 group="Note" name=PBL>The earliest Brabantine Gothic style elements were built soon after 1333 when the Prince-Bishop of Liège passed his feudal claim on Mechelen, in particular through its cathedral chapter, to Louis II, Count of Flanders, who married the heiress of Brabant and in 1355 took the title of Duke of Brabant.〕〔 name=Mbs>〕 Reputed architects such as Jean d'Oisy,〔 name=JdO>〕 Jacob van Thienen,〔 name=JvT>〕 Everaert Spoorwater,〔 name=Spoorwater> (This architect is also known as Evert van der Weyden.)〕 Matheus de Layens,〔 name=deLayens>〕 and the Keldermans and De Waghemakere〔 name=DeWaghemakere>〕 families disseminated the style and techniques to cities and towns of the Duchy of Brabant and beyond.〔 group="Note" name=N_naming>About Gothic architecture in the Low Countries, the Dutch-language term ''kustgotiek'' ('Coastal Gothic') occurs. Apparently, that literature describes its present-day national coastal areas: in the Netherlands mainly the subject found in this WP article under ''Counties of Holland and of Zeeland''; in Belgium (including topics about Zeelandic Flanders) mainly (a variant of) ''Scheldt Gothic''. Mostly fifteenth-century constructions, Gothic churches in the former Duchy of Guelders are Lower Rhine Gothic, following a style from the area along the Lower Rhine in present-day Germany.〕 For churches and other major buildings, the tenor prevailed and lasted throughout the Renaissance.〔 name=Ren>〕 ==Harbingers== Brabantine Gothic, in a Low Countries context also referred to as High Gothic, differs from the earlier introduced Scheldt Gothic, which typically had the main tower above the crossing of a church, maintained Romanesque horizontal lines, and applied blue-gray stone quarried from the vicinity of Tournai at the river Scheldt that allowed its transportation in particular in the old County of Flanders.〔 name=Scheldt>〕〔 name=Dohmen>〕 Mosan Gothic (Meuse Gothic) refers to the river Maas (or Meuse, borrowed from French), mainly in the south-eastern parts of the Low Countries: the modern provinces of Limburg in the Netherlands, Limburg in Flanders, and Liège in Wallonia. Though of a later origin than Scheldt Gothic, it also still showed more Romanesque features, including smaller windows. Marlstone was used, and around the capitals on limestone columns are sculptured leaves of irises.〔 name=Cammaerts>〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brabantine Gothic」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
