Bellenaves - Saint-Martin
The parish church of Bellenaves, dedicated to Saint Martin, was a part of priory, when it was built in the second half of the 12th century.
The triangular tympanum seems to have been carved for another place, but it has been here since early times. Christ in the mandorla, two angels holding it. Christ seats on a piece of architecture, arcades can be seen. This is typical for the Burgundian style, often seen about 100 kms northeast. But the details, carved perfectly in the Brionnais, lack that certain elegance here.
The lintel depicts the "Last Supper" - and to the very right the "Washing of the Feet".
