Pierre, this is just magnificent. Imagine that not only were these handmade, but sooo long ago. I love the way the childs hand is wrapped around the beard! And the wonderful work on the pillars! I will go check out the website too. I would love to know the whole area better. It is so amazing that the construction began in in the year 1170 ! It's hard even to think like that ! Thank you so much for this wonderful photo. And am looking forward to more of your travel photos soon.. Verena

She was so blonde she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice box because it said "concentrate" !

Beautiful sculptures, Pierre. They remind me of the ones I saw in NYC at a cathedral I visited there. Love how you brought out their 3D appearance. Excellent capture.

Maybe you thought "they were all broken noses".
In fact, all religious statues in french countries (also south of Belgium, western Switzerland, ...) were attacked by the French during the french revolution (year 1789-1800)
