Christ in Glory, 12th century fresco in the vault of the Romanesque choir of Nevers Cathedral, or Cathedral of Saint Cyricus and Saint Julitta of Nevers, Nevers, Bourgogne-Franche-Comte, France. The fresco depicts the resurrection and glory of Christ, seated in a mandorla surrounded by angels, his victory over death and the promise of eternal life. Above is the lamb of god and a cross, with the elders of the apocalypse. The apse and transept at the West end of the church are Romanesque, while the nave and Eastern apse are 14th century Gothic. The building is listed as a national monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
