The influence of the Crusades can be seen in the Mission of the Apostles from the Vezelay tympanum.
Vezelay was closely associated with the Crusades. Urban II had intended to preach the launch of the First Crusade at Vezelay. Bernard of Clairvaux called for the Second Crusade from Vezelay, and the Third Crusade was started at Vezelay. The iconographic implications of the tympanum, itself could read as a mission of the "apostles" in the guise of the crusaders who would bring Christianity to the Infidel.

Romanesque Architecture is a form of medieval architecture that adapts the roman styles of construction (as in the phrase "roman"-esque), seen distinctly in its rounded arches. It developed around 6th century AD and is often compared to its descendant, Gothic Architecture. What makes it different is the lack of large penetrations in the walls (examples are taken from the medieval churches as little else constructed from that time remains standing). Most of these churches often used tapestries rather than stained glass (as in the high Gothic ages) to document and/or tell stories. The romanesque churches have a rather heavy feel to them with very solid and large wall structures with attached (rather than flying) buttresses.
