More wonderful pictures. I love the carved arch, all golden and eternal while the world slides away beyond it! Also the dried fish: I remember being very impressed by the chimneys in the Abbot's Kitchen.

Thanks.

I've been trying to identify the two images on the arch. I think the top one is Adam and Eve and the lower one the prodigal son being welcomed by his father.
