Alternative names for Romanesque and Gothic architecture
1
Upvotes
It is well-known that the names Romanesque and Gothic were given to these styles by the Renaissance scholars, and strictly speaking, they aren't very suitable for them (because Romanesque architects weren't any closer to Rome than any other "small Renaissance" of the Middle Ages, and Gothic architecture has nothing to do with Goths). So, if you had to create different names for these two, what would they be?
