medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Carvings/decorations on the outside walls of French
churches is quite common, even omitting the obvious
gargoyles. They are frequently whimsical, even quite
profane. The strange wings on your angel may indicate
that s/he is a seraph, whose wings are usually
multiple and quite fantastically rendered. Is there
any way you can send an image? (Not to the list as a
whole, as that is discouraged by the owners.)
