Sant Climent de Taull church
Detail of Mural Painting in the northern abside of Sant Climent de Taull church, 1123, consecrated by Ramon Guillem, the bishop of Roda, Taull, Province of Lleida, Catalonia, Spain. The murals were removed to the MNAC (National Art Museum of Catalonia, Barcelona) in 1922, to prevent the theft of the murals. The murals, which are frescos, were removed by painting them with horsehide glue and then peeling off the hardened glue, carrying the pigments of the mural with it. Picture by Manuel Cohen
