A Late Addition
I love the rich colours in this side aisle. I used the canvas texture again to match the photo of the main aisle.
From my 1984 album of this trip: St Paul, a tiny mountain village near Vence.At the entrance to it, is a cannon ready to shoot down any intruders. Three were many mountain villages built. During the day the people worked in the valleys & at night they retired behind the safety of the walls.
Interior of the church in St Paul. Aisle to left of main aisle.
From official website: Parish Church de Saint-Paul :
Located at the highest point of the village, the church is topped by a square bell tower which served as the château's belfry dungeon. Constructed in the 13th century - as confirmed by the Roman choir - it possesses a single nave whose square appearance is accentuated by the gothic side aisles added during the 15th century. Its chapels house some remarkable pieces including an alabaster Virgin dating from the 15th century and a baptistery in Carrare marble. Thanks to Antoine Godeau, Bishop of Vence, the parish church became the Collégiale de la Conversion de Saint-Paul (Collegiate Church of the Conversion of Saint Paul) in 1666. Louis XIV gave is approval on 20 June 1667.
