Noah's Ark |
 Noah's Ark mounted on blue card |
Inscription: THERE WENT IN TWO & TWO INTO THE ARK
This tile design is based on a wonderful Romanesque wall painting in the abbey church of St Savin sur Gartempe, Poitou, France (a UNESCO World Heritage Site). We see the three-storied ark filled with Noah and his family on the top floor, with various recognisable animals modelled beneath. The raven and dove from the story appear at the stern and prow of the ark whilst the text is contained in a ribbon above. The quote is adapted from Genesis Chapter 7, verse 15 “And they went unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh....” A lovely intricate wall tile for everyone to enjoy.
Fixing Points: One hole: between the roof of the ark and the banner
