The Abbey Left Wall of Porch
Possibly: On the right is the figure of woman, hands pinned to the wall by snakes, face in agony. A demon stands on the left, hand holding her wrist. As the snakes hang from her breasts and a frog from her genitals, she is assumed to represent Lust. Note: I do not find this identification convincing but have nothing better to offer as yet. lower right of left wall © 2001 Susan R. Dixon
