"The monsters abandoned between Romanesque and Gothic" ASWCONTEST

in #aswcontest7 years ago

Hello friends photographers! I go against the current and I show you a picture of my watercolor work. The monsters very frequent architectural elements in the churches and cathedrals of Europe between the year 1100 and 1400. The function of these monstrous figures and of great visual effect was to remove the devil and to defend the religious building, but also to instill fear and fear of possible sinners.
So also a preventive role!
