Reference
:
Another angel, holding an uninscribed banderole, is found on the other angle of the capital. It seems that the sculptor did not understand the real sense of the figures. The angels could represent the evangelists, like at Brioude, Notre-Dame-du-Port (Clermont-Ferrand), Volvic, or the capital from Mozac now found in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
