‘The Renaissance outside Italy’

‘France. The Renaissance style of architecture appeared in France at the very end of the 15^th century and flourished until the end of the 16^th century. As in other north European countries and in the Iberian peninsula, the new Renaissance manner did not completely oust the older Gothic style, which survived in many parts of France throughout the 16^th century [ce] (See above[,] the section Late Gothic). French Renaissance architecture is divided into two periods: the early Renaissance, from the end of the 15^th century until about 1530[ce], and Mannerism, dating from about 1530[ce] to the end of the 16^th century [ce].’
