The Chapel of Our Lady of Grace

The statue of Notre-Dame de Grâce de Vétheuil, which dates from the 14th century, is a typical representation of the very refined sculpture of the Paris region.

She is a somewhat mannered Virgin whose head is a bit strong and whose neck is very high because she was made to be seen from afar. She holds the Child seated on her left knee with a very maternal gesture. This statue has been the object of great veneration. Originally, it was displayed outside the church in a niche in the south portal because it was the object of a pilgrimage.
