The Frontage
Church Our-injury the Large one
Added towards the second quarter of XIIe century, the frontage-screen of Our-injury-the-Large with a silhouette specific to the novel poitevin. One finds this type of composition to the church St-Hilaire of Miss and St-Jouin-of-Marls. The frontage, punt, are much higher than the building, making the effect of a bottom of scene. Framed by two turrets which one is unaware of the function (except to admit the explanation of "the Initiatory Rosette" that Rosart gives some), it is structured superimposed blind arcades. The sculpture decorates with profusion the frontage. One finds there reasons frequent for the Romanesque art: rinceaux, bestiary, let us modillons carved fantastic heads grimaçantes and figures. A capital represents faced elephants. Above the gate, a plank comprises biblical scenes. -- Too difficult to clarify.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 19:44, 20 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
