Saint Gall
Borgund Stave Church
Doors of Bishop Bernward
Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela
Church of Sant Vincenc

** architecture terms **
Major Themes:

"animal style"
Normans & and the conquest of England (Bayeux tapestry!!!)
Crusades & the spread of Christianity throughout Europe
Pilgrimages

TIPS:
* Medieval period introduced central plan churches. Art was associated with the Roman Empire and showed great Christian influence. Christianity moved to the British Isles during this time.
* Romanesque cathedrals are short and HUGE, thick walls, small windows, use vaulted ceilings to hold up roof, dark inside. Their design allowed for the movement of pilgrims with the introduction of ambulatories.
