Éduquer, (s’)émanciper

The capitals on the first level of the choir of Notre-Dame de Paris form a sculptural ensemble of exceptional richness, which is both highly coherent and remarkably diverse in form. Never before attempted on the scale of the entire choir, an in-depth analysis of the forms and motifs used in these c...
