CHURCHES

“a worshiper of the HolyT rinity.”
From the moldings upon the
fragment, it might have been a
part of a post of a parapet or
screen, and possibly belonged to
the church. If this be true, we
may assume that the church itself
was dedicated to the Iioly Trinity.
Too much cannot be said of the
beauty of the interior decorations
of Kalb Lauzeh, the crisp and
graceful carving of the great archi-
volts, the elaborate and flowing
ornament of the chancel arch, the
bold treatment of the foliage of
the great caps of the piers of the
nave, and the graceful turning of
the slender colonnettes; the architects of this edifice expended greater pains upon the
adornment of its interior even than upon the exterior.
Interior of apse, church at Kalb Lauzeh.
Exterior of apse, church at Ivalb Lauzeh.
