Image: Cloister Capital: Winged Ram

Winged ram with two bodies and its wings in its mouth, accompanied by a human head and a relief of a bird. Romanesque capital from the upper cloister, dating from the 13th century. It is now displayed in the reconstructed south gallery of the lower cloister. Saint-Martin-du-Canigou Abbey (c.1009), Roussillon, France.
