Guide to Architectural carvings

Does anybody know of a resource that will give a guide to carvings on churches etc in Paris.

I am particularly interested in seeing any examples of the %26quot;green man%26quot; used. This is a man%26#39;s face with leaves and foliage etc around it. I know it is used on many churches in England but I am not sure if the same is true in France.

Thanks,

WM.

You will be pleased to know there is one. I cannot remember where......

This may be a useful site though: mikeharding.co.uk/greenman/greenintro.html

Thanks Wizard,

I didn%26#39;t expect to get any responses to this thread. I looked at the website - it%26#39;s a good place to start.
