The other end of the beam were carved two figures, one of which evokes for some the head of Francis I. Others are decorated with symbolic animals.

Dating from the sixteenth century (Renaissance), it differs from the static and frontal models widely used in the Middle Ages, by its flexible movement and the presentation of the child leaning on the side towards the faithful.
