Carved capital from the nave of Vezelay Abbey church, Vezelay, Yonne, Burgundy, France. Vezelay Abbey was a Benedictine and Cluniac monastery founded in the 9th century by St Badilo, who was said to have brought back relics of Mary Magdalene from the Holy Land. The Abbey Church or Basilica of St Mary Magdalene is a 12th century Burgundian Romanesque church. The capitals in the nave were probably carved by artists from Cluny Abbey and depict biblical scenes, ancient legends and mythological creatures. This capital depicts Jeremiah blessing Abimelech.
