What type of sculpture in which material such as clay is shaped or formedA type of sculpture in which material such as clay is shaped or formed?

The type of sculpture in which materials like clay are shaped or formed is known as "modeling." This technique involves adding and manipulating the material to create desired shapes and details. Unlike carving, which removes material from a solid mass, modeling allows for more flexibility and creativity in forming three-dimensional art. Clay is a popular medium for this type of sculpture due to its malleability and ease of use.


What are the contribution of romanesque architecture?

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.

How did 11th century Romanesque masons construct monumental groin vaults?

11th century Romanesque masons constructed monumental groin vaults by first creating a framework of intersecting barrel vaults, which were made from stone or brick. They meticulously designed the curves and angles to distribute weight evenly, using thick walls to support the heavy stone ceilings. The use of ribbing and pointed arches helped to enhance stability and aesthetics. This innovative technique allowed for larger, more open interior spaces in churches and cathedrals.
