Term coined around 1825. 900-1200. In architecture the Romanesque is typified by the use of the round arch and conspicuously heavy construction. In painting and sculpture forms are often expressively distorted to convey religious emotion. [Textbook] the medieval artistic style of c. 900-1200, in architecture characterized by the use of rounded arches, tunnel vaults, and other features of Roman architecture (hence the name "Romanesque“) Note that Roman realism is not part of the Romanesque style.
