Folks with good visual memories, help! I was trying to find a picture of the Lion of Judah for the last O Antiphon (look at Gen 49 and that will make sense) (I hope). I have a vague notion that somewhere there is a reasonably well-known stylised lion’s face/head in a medieval depiction – I think early medieval, quite possibly Celtic, and I think a painting in a manuscript, though possibly a sculpture. And I don’t think (though I might be wrong) that it’s intended to represent St Mark. Does anyone have any clue what I’m talking about? Anyone? Google has not yet been my friend on this!
