Soissons Cathedral
Choir clerestory
w.103:
Date: c.
1260 - and C19
Reassembled panels including four fine figures of Old Testament figures, reminiscent of the earlier figures at
St Remi at Reims and Canterbury (See the Caviness reference).
Amongst the numerous C19 smaller panels the subjects include
the Liberal Arts, the Signs of the Zodiac, the Labours of the Months, a Season and an Elder of the Apocalypse (most
of these and the four large figures are thought to have come from the royal abbey of Braine - most of the roundels
from its north rose window and the angels from its west rose)
