I believe the
correct answer is: 1. Divinity and a sense of being closer to God.
One of the Gothic
architecture’s most notable and characteristic elements was the process of shrinking
the walls and inserting of large, painted windows in order to admit immense
amounts of light into the church. This was influenced by the clerical belief in
the Middle Ages that the metaphysics of light represents divinity, and was
therefore of the importance in the display in holy settings.
