Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris

Portal of St. Anne

The Portal of St. Anne was the first of the three west portals to be installed (c.1200). Its tympanum is an earlier Romanesque work dating from about 1150. Anne is the Virgin Mary's mother, who is mentioned in early Christian stories but not in the Bible.
