Boscherville - Abbaye Saint-Georges
This is the entrance to the chapter house of the former "Abbaye Saint-Georges de Boscherville", founded by a chamberlain of William the Conqueror, and in existence upto the French Revolution.
The abbey church serves the parish since then. Most buildings of the abbey got demolished after the Revolution, but the chapter house survived. I had been here about 10 years ago, when this part of the abbey was closed. This time I had more luck - and was surprised by originality and quality of the carvings.
Some of the carvings here are copies, as the delicate and already weathered originals are kept in a museum in Rouen.
This capital may depict the legend of Saint Hubertus (aka "Hubert de Liège").
