Assumption of the Virgin, High altar, Basilica of Liesse Notre Dame, Liesse-Notre-Dame, Laon, Picardy, France
Bas-relief of the Assumption of the Virgin on the High Altar, made 1610 in Italian Renaissance style, donated by Marie de Medici, wife of Henri IV, on the birth of Louis XIII, in the Basilica of Liesse Notre Dame, built 1134 in Flamboyant Gothic style by the Chevaliers d'Eppes, then rebuilt in 1384 and enlarged in 1480 and again in the 19th century, Liesse-Notre-Dame, Laon, Picardy, France.
