The Chichester Cathedral misericord of the amphisbaena is shown to be a memento mori by the surrounding carvings. |
A misericord in St. George's Chapel, Windsor, shows four enormous hounds piling into a cauldron, indifferent to the cook just poised to hurl his ladle. |
The misericord choir stalls, best of only three surviving probably friary sets, languish damp and neglected in the Old Grammar School. |
Weak light filters in through stained glass and creates deep shadows among the pews and misericords. |
These appear in the stained glass windows, stone column capitals, decorated ends of pews, or even the misericords carved on the bottom of hinged church seats. |
The senior choir stalls are misericords, hinged seats with a wooden block on which choirmen could sit during long sermons. |
