Late Gothic Revival (1900-1940)
History
The flamboyant Victorian Gothic architecture of the late 19th century gave way in the early 1900s to a smoother and more subdued style referred to as the Late Gothic Revival. Because of its historic association with the church and medieval centres of education, the style was most popularly used for churches, schools and universities. In this context it is often referred to as Collegiate Gothic. The source for detailing came from the English Perpendicular Gothic of the 15th century. In domestic architecture the detail sources were generally from 16th century Tudor and Elizabethan traditions.
