The Romanesque Sixtine

This ensemble is organized in several cycles: the cycle of Creation and those of Noah, Abraham, Joseph and Moses. Today exhibited in the library of the City, the volume copy of the vault of Saint-Savin allows you to admire as closely as possible these dynamic and fluid figures, with ochre colors and pastel tones so characteristic of the Romanesque wall art of the Centre of France.
At 11:00 and 2:30 all weekend
Duration: 1h
