La tour sud est beaucoup plus récente puisqu'elle date du début du XVIe siècle ; la première pierre est posée en 1485, le 10 novembre, par Robert de Croismare, les travaux étant commencés par Guillaume Pontif, maître d’œuvre. En 1496, Guillaume Pontif est remplacé par Jacques le Roux qui achève la tour en 1506. Elle est « couronnée », ce qui est caractéristique du style flamboyant, dite « de beurre », parce qu'elle a été financée avec les indulgences de carême, c'est-à-dire que des fidèles riches s'achetaient le droit de consommer du beurre et autres laitages pendant le carême tout comme à la cathédrale de Bourges où existe également une tour de beurre.

Une autre explication à cette dénomination est que cette tour est d'une teinte plus jaune (calcaire lutétien de Saint-Leu, dont la couleur pourrait faire penser que la tour a été sculptée dans une motte de beurre) que le reste de la maçonnerie en pierre blanche de Caumont et de Vernon. Elle n'est construite qu'à partir de 1485 et le chapitre de la cathédrale connut de houleux débats entre les « anciens » et les « modernes » pour décider qui des partisans d'une flèche ou d'une couronne l'emporterait. Finalement les seconds l'emportèrent. Sa construction qui coûta 24 750 livres tournois était destinée à équilibrer au sud le volume de la tour Saint-Romain. Elle se compose de quatre niveaux qui suivent un plan carré et d'un couronnement octogonal ponctué de pinacles.

L'immense cloche de la tour est fondue en 1501, elle prend le nom de son mécène, Georges d'Amboise.

La tour de Beurre a inspiré la construction d'un célèbre building de Chicago, la Tribune Tower, en 1923-1925.

La tour de Beurre contient 2 des sept cloches de la cathédrale.

 

The south tower is much more recent, dating from the beginning of the 16th century; the first stone was laid in 1485, on November 10, by Robert de Croismare, with work started by Guillaume Pontif, the master builder. In 1496, Guillaume Pontif was replaced by Jacques le Roux, who completed the tower in 1506. It is "crowned", which is characteristic of the flamboyant style, called "butter", because it was financed with Lenten indulgences, that is to say that wealthy worshippers bought the right to consume butter and other dairy products during Lent, just like at Bourges Cathedral, where there is also a butter tower. Another explanation for this name is that this tower is a more yellow shade (Lutetian limestone from Saint-Leu, the color of which could suggest that the tower was sculpted from a lump of butter) than the rest of the white stone masonry of Caumont and Vernon. It was not built until 1485 and the cathedral chapter experienced heated debates between the "ancients" and the "moderns" to decide which of the supporters of a spire or a crown would prevail. Finally, the latter won. Its construction, which cost 24,750 livres tournois, was intended to balance the volume of the Saint-Romain tower to the south. It is composed of four levels that follow a square plan and an octagonal crown punctuated by pinnacles.

The tower's immense bell was cast in 1501, it takes the name of its patron, Georges d'Amboise.

The Butter Tower inspired the construction of a famous Chicago building, the Tribune Tower, in 1923-1925.

The Butter Tower contains 2 of the cathedral's seven bells.

Lens is the chunky Minolta MC Rokkor QE 100mm f3.5 Macro. In fairness I should be comparing this lens to my Pentax-M 100mm f4 macro, rather than the Rikenon. Both the Rokkor and the Pentax will focus down to half life-size.

The Pentax 'M' design philosophy was to produce lenses that were elegant, light, and compact. Almost all had a 49mm filter thread. The focus ring on the Pentax is buttery smooth and superbly dampened.

In contrast the Rokkor is like a brick (592g vs just 378g) and utilitarian in design. Yes, the lens is a smidgin faster (f3.5 vs f4), though not enough to justify the weight difference. Filter thread is 55mm. The focus ring moves in a way that suggests the lens has seen plenty of use.

While the two lenses handle quite differently, I do like the solid feel of the early Rokkor lenses.

 

The results so far look very nice.

As a comparison, I had photographed this same clump of daises just over a year ago - with the Rikenon.

" J'avais 5 ans, enfin, je crois. Pas plus de 6.

C'était la 1ère fois que j'étais hospitalisée. Je n'avais pas le choix.

Je me souviens de lits à barreaux, en hauteur, pour bébés, dans la même pièce que la mienne.

Je me souviens de pleurs, de beaucoup de pleurs.

Je n'étais pas rassurée.

La nuit, je n'avais pas le droit de me lever pour aller aux toilettes, j'avais du mal en plus à me déplacer. Mais est-ce que c'était une raison de me l'interdire? Je me souviens d'avoir eu froid aussi. Dormir juste en culotte.

Ne pas oser, ne pas bouger, retenir ses sanglots jusqu'à ne plus y arriver.

J'ai l'impression de l'avoir rêvé...

Je me souviens de cette inconnue qui m'a aidée malgré tout.

Je me souviens aussi que mon père m'a crue ..."

 

"I was 5 years old, I think. No more than 6.

It was the 1st time I'd been in hospital. I had no choice.

I remember high cots for babies in the same room as mine.

I remember crying, a lot of crying.

I wasn't reassured.

At night, I wasn't allowed to get up to go to the toilet, and it was even harder to move around. But was that a reason to ban me? I remember being cold too. Sleeping in just my panties.

Not daring, not moving, holding back the sobs until I couldn't do it any more.

I feel like I was dreaming it...

I remember this stranger who helped me in spite of everything.

I also remember that my father believed me..."

J aime beaucoup cette chanson de

** Tina Arena **

J'ai tant caché mes différences

Sous des airs ou des faux semblants

J'ai cru que d'autres pas de danses

Me cacheraient aux yeux des gens

Je n'ai jamais suivi vos routes

J'ai voulu tracer mon chemin

 

Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Ou l'on oublie ses souvenirs

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Se rapprocher de l'avenir

 

J'ai perdu tant de fois la trace

Des rêves pour lesquels je vivais

Je n'ai pas su te dire je t'aime

Seulement te garder

Il faut aussi dire ses doutes

Et les poser dans d'autres mains

 

Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et dessiner des souvenirs

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et croire encore à l'avenir

 

Pour aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et dessiner des souvenirs

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Et croire encore à l'avenir

Aller plus haut, aller plus haut

Se rapprocher de l'avenir.

 

As I hid my differences

Air or under false pretenses

I thought that others do not dance

Me hiding in the eyes of people

I have never followed your route

I wanted to trace my way

 

To go higher, go higher

Or we forget memories

Jump higher, go higher

Move towards the future

 

I lost both times the trace

Dreams where I lived

I have not been able to tell you I love you

Only you keep

It must also be doubts

And ask them in other hands

 

To go higher, go higher

And draw memories

Jump higher, go higher

And believe in the future

 

To go higher, go higher

And draw memories

Jump higher, go higher

And believe in the future

Jump higher, go higher

Move towards the future.

How can this be 33 years old?! Certainly done well to survive this long, looks like it was getting used very sparingly until 2017/18, then it was off-road until 2020 since when the mileage has been going up more rapidly - it did nearly 11,000 miles between tests in January 2022 and 2023.
