Holy shit. I'm right here with you & am pretty shocked that you're getting shit on for caring! Maybe not in terms of sheer popularity & visibility, but historical significance, I'd even say that Notre dame is far more important than the pyramids. As an art history fan, I'm flashing back to abott suger's gothic architecture st. Denis theories on the idea of sculpting light & negative space...and how much that changed & influenced modern architecture & sculpture...not to mention the fact that seeing notre dame in person...its like seeing the Grand Canyon. Pictures are nothing compared to reality & you even forget the scale & awesomeness till you see it again & are floored the second time.
How can people not care even a little...what in the fuck...
I don't care about the Notre Dame cathedral
