Isavarre No. 1

Described in Catalunya romànica (1984- , vol. XV: 165): baptismal font of the late 12th or early 13th century consisting of a hemispherical basin and a small pedestal with a capital; the basin, very eroded, has three levels of ornamentation: on the upper basin side can be seen a serpent and two other animals, face-to-face, one of which appears to be a quadruped; below this band, two roll mouldings with a wavy line between them; the third level, on the underbowl, has several motifs that are badly damaged and therefore difficult to identify: perhaps the head of an orant figure, two birds, either doves or eagles, and an animal with a human head (?). Described in the Gran Geografia Comarcal de Catalunya (1995, v. 12: 101) as an ancient stone baptismal font. Cabestany, Matas & Palau (2005) attribute it to a local workshop and date it in the late 12th or early 13th century.
