Rosheim - Saints-Pierre-et-Paul

The construction of the "Église Saints-Pierre-et-Paul" started around 1150. The basilica-style
church has the classical layout of a latin cross and is known for the carvings.

Size and the quality of some of them are really breathtaking.

There are different artistic styles here. I seems like four master-carvers were given a chance, to
show their talents and so they used this as a showcase.

Another corbel - depicting the face of a nicely combed woman. The face is framed by two small
braids. She is obviously very suprised and amused (maybe meeting "Piggy" - seen of the
last photo last photo - high up there) and so has raised her eyebrows and shows a small smile.
If she would have a hand - she would probably take the cobweb off her face.

Sorry for the bad quality of the photo..
