Medieval Gargoyle (Montemor-o-Novo)
Abstract
A peculiar gargoyle, in granite, probably from the ruins of Santa Maria do Bispo's Church, in Montemor-o-Novo's Castle. This piece is preserved in the Montemor-o-Novo's Archaeological Museum in the Convent of São Domingos. The piece features two human figures holding each other in what appears, at the first look, to be a romantic scene, altough with some erotic characteristics that could be hidden from those that don't look for the details. Photos from Canon 5D Mk IV (35mm lens). Completely processed (aligned, scaled, modeled, cleaned, simplified, unwrapped, textured, meshed) in Reality Capture. Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab
