medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
"Also, I believe that the figures of Synagoga and Ecclesia at Strasbourg are
copies of the originals which are housed in the Musée de L'Oeuvre
Notre-Dame."
Alas, this seems to be true of almost all the French cathedrals I've seen with the exception of the Visitation group at Reims, I think, where the original (?) paint is still visible on the statues. I suppose there is a constant tug-of-war between display and preserve.
