Cosmatesque

Cosmatesque is a fancy word that describes a kind of fancy art style that was popular a long time ago.

Imagine you have a big, beautiful church in front of you. When you go inside, you notice that the floors are decorated with really pretty patterns made out of all different kinds of stones. These patterns are very symmetrical and geometric, which means that they have a lot of neat shapes that all fit together perfectly.

This kind of fancy decoration is called cosmatesque. It was invented in Italy a long, long time ago, and it was used to decorate floors, walls, and even furniture. Everywhere you look, there are intricate patterns and designs that are meant to make everything look really grand and important.

So next time you see a really fancy floor or wall with lots of intricate designs like this, you can say "Wow, that's so cosmatesque!"
