England. The Renaissance style of architecture made a very timid appearance in England during the first half of the 16th century, and it was only from about 1550[ce] that it became a positive style with local qualities. In fact, the Gothic style continued in many parts of England throughout most of the 16th century [ce], and English Renaissance architecture was a very original fusion of the Tudor Gothic and Classic styles. This style flourished until the early 17th century [ce] when Inigo Jones created a much more Italianate style that gradually replaced the English Renaissance style.’
