Dijon: St. Philibert Church, capital with Nativity scene



Dijon: St. Philibert Church, capital with Nativity (Dijon Mus. Arch; Athena Review Image Archive)


This 12th century AD  limestone capital, from the Church of St. Philibert, shows detailed scenes from the Nativity. This portion, quite eroded in areas,  shows the donkey and ox in the stable. 

The carving is now in the Dijon  Museum of Archaeology.
