Saint-Gabriel de Tarascon
Just about 12 kms north of Arles was an "interchange" during Roman times, as the Via Aurelia Domitia linked to the Via Aurelia here. Centuries later a chapel was erected near this once important place, first recorded in 858. This was the predecessor of the chapel seen today, built end of the 12th century. It is surrounded by olive trees and was watched over by a fortified castle on the hill. While the fortification is in ruins, the chapel, dedicated to Saint Gabriel, is still in a good condition.
The "oculus" under the gable of the western facade. - A subtle, very detailed carving and an impressing tetramorph. Only the head of the eagle got lost. Very different carvings styles and technics can be found at the Saint-Gabriel chapel. The master, who created this part was very "advanced" compared to his collegues.
