The Romanesque was Western Christendom's first unified style of art,
00:00:01
spreading throughout much of Europe in the 11th, 12th and the first half of the 13th century.
00:00:11
It originated in France, linked to the Cistercian religious order and the Abbey of Cluny,
00:00:18
emerging simultaneously in Spain, France, Italy and Germany.
00:00:26
Its name is owing to its employment of Roman techniques,
00:00:33
an attempt being made to recover the spirit of a new Christian Rome
00:00:38
as an instrument for the dissemination of Christianity.
00:00:42
At the architectural level, the churches were built based on a Latin cross or basilica layout,
00:00:46
the apse facing eastwards.
00:00:57
The use of thick stone ashlar walls is a hallmark of this artistic style.
00:01:01
together with semicircular arches and barrel vaults.
00:01:07
Openings and windows are scarce, allowing little light in,
00:01:11
while outside buttresses are used.
00:01:18
Romanesque cloisters wrap around the courtyards
00:01:22
of the monasteries, cathedrals and converts.
00:01:26
The porticos are decorated with sculptures featuring
00:01:29
hieratic poses or images of the Virgin and Child.
00:01:33
The capitals are decorated with biblical scenes.
00:01:37
Romanesque painting is characterized by its frescoes devoid of perspective or depth.
00:01:43
Pure and vivid colors are used and the art is manifestly didactic,
00:01:51
having moralizing messages to teach people the scriptures through art.
00:01:56
In Spain, Romanesque structures were built in the Christian kingdoms in the north of the peninsula,
00:02:03
especially linked to the pilgrimages on the Camino de Santiago, or Way of St. James.
00:02:08
The two sources that shaped the Spanish Romanesque were the Peninsular Pre-Romanesque and Islamic Art.
00:02:15
The Romanesque is an essentially religious art, characterizing the construction of churches, cathedrals, and monasteries,
00:02:23
such as the Cathedral of Santiago, Santo Domingo de Silos, San Clemente de Taul and San Esteban de Gormaz.
00:02:33
The early Romanesque appeared in Catalonia with evident influences from the Lombard Romanesque.
00:02:43
It is an austere and relatively unadorned architecture with discrete ashlar masonry on the walls and tall towers.
00:02:52
Clear examples are the monasteries of Santa Maria de Ripoll and San Pedro de Roda.
00:03:00
The full-fledged Romanesque can be found along the entire Camino de Santiago,
00:03:06
the Cathedral of Jaca,
00:03:12
the Monastery of San Juan de la Peña,
00:03:14
the Monastery of Leire in Navarra,
00:03:18
San Martin de Fromista in Palencia,
00:03:22
and the Royal Collegiate Church and Royal Pantheon of St. Isidore in León, known as the Romanesque Sistine Chapel.
00:03:25
Finally, the late or Hispanic Romanesque is an art with Romanesque foundations, but with its own local features,
00:03:36
such as the Holy Chamber of the Oviedo Cathedral,
00:03:45
churches with side porticos in Segovia, San Martin, San Milan, San Esteban,
00:03:50
San Miguel in Soto Salvos and Santo Domingo in Soria.
