Western frieze of the Chapel of the Maccabees

Vincent restored the sculpture of a middle-aged woman on the façade of the 13th-century St Peter's Cathedral in Geneva. The sculpture was carved from a red sandstone that has not been used since the end of the 19th century, molasse rouge du Petit-Lac. This plant motif is a segment of the reworked piece, using stone from the temporarily reopened quarry in Geneva's botanical gardens.
