This capital and capital 34 are exact duplicates. However, the upper left corner of the main composition on the east face is
broken on this capital, and intact on capital 34.
The foliage creates a wonderful surface design, coupled with a leaf-and-vine impost.
Decorated surface is the core of the Romanesque (and Archaic) style.
The incised upper moulding of the impost is repeated on several other capitals.
