Description: Vintage solid brass gargoyle. Purchase includes ONE gargoyle. The term gargoyle is most often applied to medieval work, but throughout all ages, some means of water diversion, when not conveyed in gutters, was adopted. Many medieval cathedrals included gargoyles.The earliest known medieval gargoyles appear on Loan Cathedral. One of the more famous examples are the gargoyles of Notre Dame in Paris. Although most have grotesque features, the term gargoyle has come to include all types of images. Some gargoyles were depicted as monks, or combinations of real animals and people, many of which were humorous. Unusual animal mixtures, or chimeras, did not act as rainspouts and are more properly called grotesques. They serve as ornamentation but are now popularly called gargoyles.
