D West Front. Madonna
No 37, and Child before conservation.
Here we can see the main causes for decay and loss of
detail and clarity: heavy lichen growth, hard cement repairs and
pointing, weak beds and associated friable surfaces of the Ham
stone. The serious loss of detail since 1938 down the front
surfaces of the sculpture was due to the lamination of the face
bedded stone.
