Escurolles - Saint-Cyr-et-Sainte-Julitte

The parish of Escurolles was given to Cluny in 953/054 by Ermengarde, (probably) the wife of Archambaud I de Bourbon, Seigneur de Bourbon (yes, this is where the illustrious name derived from). The church Saint-Cyr-et-Sainte-Julitte was built 11th/12th century. It has a nave and two aisles. The church is known for some pretty archaic carvings.

This capital is from the nave, near to the choir.
Probably all capitals were coloured once, but I doubt, that the colour seen here is old. Probably it is from 1908, when the church was under reconstruction. There is a number of decorative foliage in different forms and patterns - and a face. A sculptor, who is able, to carve the foliage, should be able to carve a face better than this. It looks so inartistic.

Maybe this is not a human face, but a symbol. Mayb for the full moon. Or it may be a tree with two branches/leaves - forming a face. I have no idea.
