Saint-Médard-de-Guizières (Gironde)


This church has been bashed about a bit, but the few corbels that remain on the damaged apse are remarkable.

The undamaged north part of the corbel-table of the apse.

The female exhibitionist feet-to-ears caryatid on the left of the above picture.
She is indicating or pulling her vulva, and seems also to be protruding her tongue.


The other three surviving corbels include a very toothy sow, a simian head...

...and a remarkable bicephalic male exhibitionist (uncircumcised),

here seen in negative.
