Framed Print of Head of an Apostle from the South Portal of the Cathedral of Therouanne, c
499921 Head of an Apostle from the South Portal of the Cathedral of Therouanne, c.1235-1240 (oolitic limestone) by French School, (13th century); h:41.91 w:30.35 d:32.38 Wt: 80lbs cm; Cleveland Museum of Art, OH, USA; (add.info.: These monumental stone heads are among the substantial known remains of the sculptural program of Therouannes cathedral, which was razed to the ground by Emperor Charles V of Spain in June of 1553. These heads were found in a wall of rue Ste. Croix in the town of Saint Omer (a short distance to the north) in January 1923. This group of sculptures from the gable of the south portal of Therouanne, which includes a stylistically related Christ as Judge, is recorded to have been moved to the Cathedral of Saint Omer in 1554. With their deeply carved wavy hair, curly beards, wrinkled foreheads, and ponderous facial features, these imposing heads--even in their now fragmentary and weathered state--attest to the powerful monumentality of the stone sculpture covering French church facades of the Gothic period.
