The carved capital, found in the tribune of the Priory at Serrabone in Roussillon, France, depicts a centaur and a lion. The intricate details and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring. The column capital represents an intriguing blend of reality and mythology. On one side stands a majestic lion, its fierce expression captured with precision.
