Object description :

" Modillon Of Romanesque Church (?) 3 Heads Sculpted In Burgundy Stone Middle Ages (476 To 1472)"
A modillon is an architectural element which is used to support a cornice, it was often found on Romanesque churches. This one is made of pink Burgundy stone (?) carved with 3 heads, one with a closed mouth, the 2nd slightly open and the 3rd sticking out its tongue. In the Romanesque era it was a sign of Satanism directed towards those who go to church Unlike a closed mouth reflecting the dignity of the person, an open mouth "reflects the bad dispositions of a being", it is found among executioners, the wicked, the unbelievers. “A sign of bad feelings, impiety, idolatry, Satanism, the stuck tongue, quite rarely represented, has a clear and precise meaning.” POSSIBILITY OF SENDING, careful reinforced packaging, registered with signature, insurance and tracking on the internet by its number (shipping costs).
