More Monreale, 2011

Just a few of the Old Testament scenes. All of them are narrated, in Latin, so I will offer my own rough translation.

Creation of Eve from Adam















Now I've given you this really nice garden to live in; DON'T
SCREW UP!
















Cute snake!




















Adam, come look at the cute snake




















So what's with the fig leaves?!




















And don't ya come back no more, no more, no
more, no more...




















Life is hard, especially without modern fabrics















And then there are the kids...always rough-housing















And so on; the Normans appeared very interested in the
Rebecca story, with several panels, but, sorry, nothing about
Rachel; we looked hard...
