Tympanum of Egmond Abbey, anonymous, in or after 1121 - in or before 1130 While retaining a flat, arched frame and a plinth, it is half -saved: in the middle Peter with Nimbus, holding a crooked crawl in the left hand and a double beard key in the right; On the right, used to the middle, Petronelia in profile, but with the face to the viewer and in worshiping position; On the left in the same way, but with the head three -quarters to the viewer, Dirk VI. Peter probably wears the pallium over a chasuifel with a scaly motif; Only the sleeves of the Albe are visible. The pallium is decorated at the neck with oval and squares (Émuux and stones) and on the breast strip with crosses. Petronella, probably in widower, wears a cloak, which closes with a knot near the neck and a kind of roof or headscarf, the ends of which seem to hang down. The youthful, still beardless Dirk is wearing a close -fitting jacket with a belt around the waist (?). To the right and left of Peter's head is placed among each other in the Greek 'Saint Peter'. In the arch list in Leoninian verses (partially shortened): Ianitor o Celi tibi p (Ro) nv (m) mente fideli + intromit (t) e gregem sv (per) v (m) placans sibi regem (oh, doorkeeper des Hemels, Put this with a religious heart in front of your kneeling crowd and reconcile with her the king of the heavens); On the plinth: Hic Thid (e) Ric Orat - Opus H (O) C Pet (R) Onilla Dec (O) Rat (here Dirk prays - This work is decorated by Petronella; Translations to Van Wine). Left and right on both ends of the relief, originally a lid of a sarcophagus, a corner piece for attachment in the wall. On the reverse side along the base and adjacent corner pieces, as well as in the upper part of the round arch, two parallel straight grooves, as well as three metal dived with each of them an eye for holding a ring.
