The later period of construction is most noticeable in the triforium, which has not the simple elegance of the nave.
The arrangement of the bays is entirely different, the latter being surmounted by a gable decorated with crockets, while the end wall is of open construction.
Remains of 13th century stained glass are still to be seen in the triforium and the great window in the centre of the apse. The latter, dating from 1260, is practically intact.
Behind the high altar, an 18th century “glory,” representing angels and cherubs, interrupts the view of the interior of the Cathedral.
Choir Stalls
The stalls (G on plan) are of oak and were made by the wood-cutters and wood-carvers of Amiens (1508-1519). They are in the Gothic-Flamboyant style, with Renaissance architectural and ornamental motifs.
