The right portal is dedicated
to St. Anne, mother of Mary. In this scene, located at the point of the
tympanum's arch,
we find a holdover from Romanesque
sculptural tradition in the seated Virgin in Majesty with the child Jesus
on her lap. This particular figure, as well as others from the upper
two-thirds of the tympanum, were carved some sixty years before the construction
of the portal on which they now are featured. Their stiffness and lack
of expressivement compared with the carvings of the rest of the facade
is evident.
Note on the far left the kneeling figure of Bishop Maurice de Sully.
