Editor's note: A massive fire engulfed the upper reaches of Paris' soaring Notre-Dame Cathedral as it was undergoing renovations Monday. Notre-Dame is considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture. As rescue efforts continue, let's remind ourselves of its beauty and hope for a successful recovery.
