Romanesque sculpture was stiff and formal and was more tightly fused to the structure like the portal or tympanum. Gothic sculpture portrayed greater realism and emotion in the figures and the poses were more natural, showing contrapposto stances and less verticality. The level of relief was more extreme where the figures seemed more animated and less a part of the structure itself.
