Clermont-Ferrand - Notre-Dame-Du-Port

This carved capital is place outside under the roof of one of the the radiating chapels of Notre-Du-Port.

I am sure, that this capital is directly connected to one carved by ROTBERTUS, placed on one of the pillars at the choir inside. Both have the same theme - and a very similar style!

Depicted here are "Adam and Eve" in the Garden of Eden. They are both young, pretty and innocent. They are kneeling, holding a grape - perfectly symmetrically. They seem to pose. No snake - no danger. Just "another day in paradies".

Please not the black and white mosaics.
