Candelabra Foot, bronze, mid 12th century Musée Saint-Remi, Reims This is just a fragment of a huge bronze candelabra made for Saint-Remi Church. It measured more than 6 meters tall and 5 meters wide. Each of the four feet depicted one of the four evangelists surrounded by fantastic animals and decorated with pieces of rock crystal. The candelabra was smashed during the French Revolution, and this is the only piece that was saved.Photos by Charles Reeza -- source link
