Art and Architecture
played an integral role in their sustainability and success. This paper will therefore seek elaborate
on culture, innovation, and religion as expressed through art and architecture. The paper will
serve the purpose of exploring how historical innovations in art and architecture built based on
old historical developments lead to modern arrangements and styles. The paper will further focus
on a specific example to give a clear understanding on how innovations do not just serve their
purpose but also shape cultural and religious norms. The research will be based on formal
analysis while including other elements such as the color, shape, line, and mode so as to give a
detailed understanding on the innovation. It is also true that art and architecture have evolved
over the years with now improved structural innovations which greatly impact the related fields.
The focus here will be on two different structural innovations which are the development of the
Dome Architecture of the Roman Empire and the Gothic Cathedral Design which was introduced
in Medieval Europe. The two innovations illustrate how structures in the past were designed to
develop memorable architectural works.
