                         Back to Sculpture of the First Gothic and Classical Gothic
 
 
   
Large capital from Burgundy
 


 

 

Important vegetal capital carved with large water leaves at angles, terminating with little hooks (missing), and separated by stylised leaves.

The vegetal is not treated with realism but stylised, a feature typical of First Gothic. Yet some features such as the round corbel under the rectangular upper part developped only around 1200.

Good conservation, visible lacks.
