The Archbishop of Paris made for an unusually long mass (so we were told) |
So anyhow, after a nice lunch at The Clown, a Bretonne creperie nearby, we walked to the Cluny Museum, where we spent the rest of the day; above, a stained glass of the resurrection from the Saint Chapelle, literally a leftover part from a recent renovation and cleaning; previous blog post on the Cluny, from 2009, is at http://roadeveron.blogspot.fr/2009/08/cluny.html |
A smiling angel, like at Reims |
One of the world's great tapestries |
The Kiss; also some reconstructive ear surgery |
Note how the robe folds are both sculptured and painted |
I'll drink to that: a tapestry on the making of wine |
Related theme on the misericord |
Nice place, the Cluny; not pictured are the Roman stuff atop which the abbey was later built |
