Mystery of the Immaculate Conception, detail of a fresco by Charles Soulacroix, 1825-99, in the first apse chapel, in the Basilique Notre-Dame-de-l'Immaculee-Conception or Basilica of Notre-Dame de Boulogne, a Roman Catholic cathedral built 1827-63 in Neoclassical style by Benoit-Agathon Haffreingue, in Boulogne, Pas de Calais, France. The fresco depicts the Virgin in Glory, surrounded by clouds, angels and rays of light, crushing a snake with her foot. Below are 2 angels with weapons and to the right is St Michael the archangel. Charles Soulacroix, a sculptor, was commissioned in 1863-65 by Haffreingue to decorate the 6 apse chapels, these being his first frescoes. The cathedral is listed as a national monument.
