W<\/span>hile I have certainly taken better photos<\/a> of this massive sculpture, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to post this first one. This type of sculpture is known as a tympanum<\/a>, and this particular example is part of the “porch” of the Iglesia de Santa Mar\u00eda<\/a> in Villalc\u00e1zar de Sirga. The upper register shows Christ in majesty, surrounded by angels and the apostles. The lower register depicts the Blessed Virgin Mary with the Christ child, surrounded by Old Testament kings and prophets. I absolutely adore tympanums (tympani?), and I really wish they’d make a comeback in modern church architecture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
