Neuilly-en-Donjon - Église Ste-Marie-Madeleine

The church Ste-Marie-Madeleine belonged to the former priory de Marcigny. Here the very extraordenary and spectacular portal of the otherwise humble building. Compared to the other romanesque carvings of the Brionnaise, this is very delicate and thematically very chaotic, as it shows different scenes, that seem not be connected to each other. The tympanon depicts St. Mary, the child and the Three Magis, standing on two phantastic animals, and flanked by four angels, blowing giant horns. The lintel below depicts Adam and Eve to the right and the last supper. See the other photos for more details.
