## Commentary

Lausanne Cathedral \(begun 1160s\) is the oldest Gothic cathedral outside France after Canterbury. The painting of the interior, still largely preserved, gives Lausanne Cathedral a special space in the study of Gothic architecture. The Cathedral dominates the cityscape of Lausanne. The main architect of the Cathedral - the largest and generally acclaimed as the Switzerland&#39;s finest Gothic building - was Jean de Cotereel.
