Image: Capital: Three Hebrews in the Furnace

Cathédrale St-Lazare Autun, Saône-et-Loire (71), Bourgogne (Burgundy), France

Romanesque capital in the nave depicting the biblical story of the three young Hebrews who, while in captivity in Babylon, were thrown into a furnace for refusing to worship an idol. Here they are singing hymns while an angel protects them from harm.
