The foliage and leonine faces create a wonderful surface design, coupled with a griffin impost. The griffins attacking the eagle is rooted in earlier European tribal art.
The decorated surface is an essential component of the Romanesque style.
The scalloped upper moulding of the impost is repeated on several other capitals.
