Cathedral also has 800sqm of 13th century frescos, which were rediscovered under later crud in 1845. And are banging

@alexvtunzelmann Never seen these before, thanks. And what's that on her forehead that looks like a slug?

@yepicturepalace I think it’s a jewel? Or maybe a jewelled slug. That bit looks like it was probably reconstructed at a later date (the sculpture was originally made around 1230).

@alexvtunzelmann Henry the Lion's biography would make for a fantastic screenplay. Big budget stuff, though.

@alexvtunzelmann I'd not seen that! It's splendid.

@alexvtunzelmann Quite a handsome man!

@alexvtunzelmann Bit brave having the assassination of Thomas Becket depicted in there!

@alexvtunzelmann Yeah it's well old because it's 12th century.😇
