Scene Description: in the Ermita de San Vicente de Pospozuelo, where the font in the present parish church San Pedro de Fuentesoto is believed to have come from -- Source caption: "A pesar de su carácter tardío esta construcción conserva un elegante ábside como marcan los cánones románicos. Tiene cuatro columnas entregas que dividen verticalmente el ábside en cinco paños, los tres centrales más anchos que los contiguos al presbiterio. Los capiteles de estas columnas presentan dos grandes hojas que semejan helechos superados por ramificaciones en espiral (en uno de ellos se incluyó el cuerpo de una persona de cintura para arriba)."
