Persian-inspired relief, Fontenay Abbey, Burgundy, France
Stone bas relief of crowned bearded man with lion's body, c. 1150, originally from Picheny abbey, Montlevon, Aisne, Picardie, (now destroyed) and displayed at the museum at Fontenay Abbey, Marmagne, Burgundy, France. The carving is inspired by Sassanian dynasty Persian reliefs. The Cistercian abbey at Fontenay was founded by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in 1119, built in the Romanesque style. The abbey itself housed 300 monks from 1200, but was sacked during the French Revolution. Its abbey church is the oldest Cistercian church in France. Collection ED. Aynard Picture by Manuel Cohen
