MEDIEVAL SCULPTOR, French
(active 12th century at Beaucaire)

Frieze (detail)

12th century
Stone
Notre-Dame-des-Pommiers, Beaucaire (Languedoc-Roussillon)

The gable of the south transept of the 18th-century church has a 12th-century frieze coming from the old Notre-Dame church. The frieze depicts Jesus washing the disciples' feet and the scene of Last Supper.

The detail shows the right part of the Last Supper. The artist offers us a composition full of life; the gestures of the apostles are differentiated and dynamic.
