Summary

[edit]
Description
Français : Un jubé gothique de la cathédrale ayant été abattu par les iconoclastes en 1566, il fut décidé quelques années plus tard et après que les troubles se sont apaisés, de le reconstruire.

Ainsi, le sculpteur Corneille Floris de Vriendt fut appelé. Celui-ci s'inspira de la tradition des arcs de triomphe romains à la mode à la Renaissance. L'influence italienne y est bien présente par le type de matériaux utilisés, les teintes et les formes des personnages qui y sont sculptés et exécutés en stuc.

Le nouveau jubé, terminé en 1572, est constitué de trois arcades en plein cintre posées sur des colonnes doriques en marbre rouge et des chapiteaux noirs. Il comporte trois statues d'albâtre : une Vierge à l'Enfant occupe le centre et est entourée de saint Piat, premier évangélisateur de Tournai, et de saint Éleuthère, un des premiers évêques de la ville.

English: A Gothic rood screen of the cathedral having been demolished by the iconoclasts in 1566, it was decided a few years later and after the troubles had subsided, to rebuild it.

Thus, the sculptor Corneille Floris de Vriendt was called. It was inspired by the tradition of the Roman triumphal arches in fashion during the Renaissance. The Italian influence is evident in the type of materials used, the colours and shapes of the characters sculpted and executed in stucco.

The new rood screen, completed in 1572, consists of three semicircular arches set on Doric red marble columns and black capitals. It has three alabaster statues: a Virgin and Child occupies the centre and is surrounded by Saint Piat, the first evangeliser of Tournai, and Saint Eleutherus, one of the first bishops of the city.
