Chust for Nice

Another in my series on Romanesque architecture. Why is Padre gung ho on Romanesque? Because the new Our Lady of the Rosary Church is going to be built in a Romanesque style. What is so great about Romansque? Well, it's a beautiful transitional stage of architecture which grew from the more solid and monolithic Byzantine style predominant in the East. It is more of the Western Church in the early Middle Ages, and begins to have the height and light of Gothic while still retaining the austere simplicity of the Byzantine.
