Description
Originalmente, este término se refiere a la parte más sobresaliente de un caño que sirve para evacuar el agua de lluvia de los tejados y evitar que los muros de piedra se deteriorasen por la erosión y la humedad. Eran muy frecuentes en las iglesias y catedrales durante la Edad Media, y solían estar adornadas mediante
#figuras
#grotescas que representan
#hombres,
#animales,
#monstruos o
#demonios, quizás para proteger el templo y asustar a los
#pecadores. Esto se mantuvo en la arquitectura renacentista española y en algunas iglesias barrocas. La palabra “gárgola” también se usa para referirse a las criaturas que decoran los muros de los edificios. A estas representaciones en particular, se les denomina
#quimeras, siendo las más populares las de Viollet-le-Duc de Notre Dame, en París.

#churches and
#cathedrals during the Middle Ages, and were often adorned with grotesque figures representing
#men,
#animals,
#monsters or
#demons, perhaps to protect the temple and scare sinners. This was maintained in Spanish Renaissance architecture and in some Baroque churches. The word gargoyle is also used to refer to the
#creatures that decorate the walls of buildings. These representations in particular are called
#chimeras, the most popular being those of Viollet-le-Duc de
#NotreDame, in Paris.
