Biography

Yann Larc'hantec or Yann Larhantec was born on 30 May 1829 in Plougonven and died on 11 January 1913 in Landerneau. He was the son of farmers Jean-Marie and Françoise Guillou. He spent most of his life in Morlaix and most of his work involved crosses and calvaries and he was entrusted with the repair and restoration of many of the great Breton calvaries of the 15th and 16th centuries. His main works are listed below.

Main works

Note
"Enclos paroissial"

In the text below there are several references to an "enclos paroissial" and this French term can be translated as parish close. These are not uncommon in Finistère and were built in the 16th and 17th centuries. The enclosure comprises an elaborately decorated parish church surrounded by an entirely walled churchyard with gateway, often an arched gateway. In England cathedral closes for example, include many residential and administrative buildings, as well as the church, but Breton Parish closes contained only buildings and structures designed for worship: the church itself, a calvary, and sometimes an ossuary or charnel house with chapel and a cemetery. The calvaries of such church enclosures are significant works of popular art and more often than not they display Christ and the two thieves whilst at the base many feature relief panels, free-standing sculptural groups or both. These groups depict onlookers of the crucifixion and nearly always include the Virgin Mary and John the Evangelist, but also many other heroes and villains – sometimes including local or national magnates. The ossuaries in such enclosures are often of large proportions and some were intended to contain large sculptures or paintings, frequently of the Deposition or Entombment of Christ. In most cases the bones have been moved from the ossuary to the cemetery although a few still hold skeletal remains. [1]

Calvary at Saint-Thégonnec

Apart from the Grand Calvaire at Saint-Thégonnec (see Saint-Thégonnec Parish close) there is a second calvary constructed in 1864 with statues by Yann Larhantec of the Virgin Mary and John the Evangelist. This calvary is set into the enclosure wall and accessed by a double stairway. [2] [3]

Larhantec executed sculptures for this Quimperlé church. [3]

Pleyben's "Croix de cimetière"

This 7-metre-high (23 ft) cross by Larhantec dates to 1869. The pedestal has reliefs depicting instruments of the passion. The cross carries inscriptions remembering particular "missions" or pilgrimages; that of 1869, 1906 and 1924. The cross is located in the cemetery. [4] [5]

The Calvary at Clohars-Carnoët

The Église Notre-Dame de Confort at Confort-Meilars dates back to 1528 and 1544 and the Calvary stands near the west porch. The Calvary was decorated with statues of the apostles but these were broken during the French revolution and then lost their heads in 1849. These were subsequently restored and placed in some unused niches on the west façade of the church. In 1870 Yan Larc'hantec executed several 1.70 metre high statues for the Calvary. The figure of Christ was hit by lightning in 1978 and restored by Pierre Floch. [22] [23]

The "Calvaire du Croissant" at Lothey

This Calvary by Larhantec dates to 1899 and the pedestal carries the inscription

"O VOS OMNES QUI TRANSITIS PER VIAM ATTENDITE ET VIDETE SI EST DOLOR SICUT DOLOR MEUS. HOC SIGNUM CRUCIS ERIT IN COELO CUM DOMINUS AD JUDICANDUM VENERIT. HANC CRUCEM AB INSIGNI SCULPTAM IANN LARHANTEC. EREXIT PATERFAMILIAS AD FILIOS IN FIDE STABILIENDOS"

Église Saint-Yves de Plougonven

Plougonven's parish church in the Trégor region was built in the early 16th century in the flamboyant gothic style. The church together with the Calvary and a burial chapel and ossuary are grouped together in the "enclos paroissial de Plougonven". It has been classified as a "monument historiques" since 7 March 1916. The church's altars were fashioned from Kersanton stone by Larhantec. The Calvary, regarded as one of Brittany's finest, dates to 1554 and was the creation of Bastien and Henry Prigent. Many of the Prigent sculptures were destroyed during the Terror and in 1897 Larhantec reconstructed the crucifixion cross. Amongst those included in the sculptural composition are Saint Yves a much venerated Saint in Brittany and Satan ("Le Diable de la tentation") and the three kings Balthazar, Melchior and Gaspard. The chapel has sober lines in contrast to the flamboyance of the church and the ossuary contains the tomb of the Abbé Le Teurnier decorated with the Abbe's statue sculpted by Larhantec. [26] Several photographs of the Prigent calvary can be seen in the gallery below. [27]

Pleyben is a commune in the Châteaulin arrondissement of Finistère department of Brittany in north-western France. The calvary in the churchyard dates from 1555.

Roland Doré was a 17th-century sculptor and his workshop or "atelier" produced many sculptures for the enclos paroissiaux or "parish church enclosure or closes" of Brittany. In particular his work can be seen on calvaries and in the church's south porch. He was born in 1616 and died in 1660. Little detail of his life is known but it is recorded that he practised as an architect in Landerneau, as well as running his workshop, and was recorded as calling himself the "Sculpteur du Roi". His works, all of an ecclesiastical nature, are mainly located in Léon and the north of Cornouaille. They can be taken as works by Doré's workshop rather than just by Doré himself. Brittany is particularly rich in calvaries, some of a very elaborate nature. In most cases the calvary involves both the crucifixion cross and side crosses or gibbets bearing the good and the bad robbers. Below this, on the crosspieces, were statues of those present at the crucifixion. A feature of Breton calvaries is that most of the statues were carved as a pair and effectively back to back. Doré's output was prodigious and he worked on nine monuments in Saint-Thégonnec, five in Logonna-Daoulas and four in the parish of Plougastel-Daoulas. He also received four commissions to work in Hanvec, three in Guiclan, Irvillac and Lampaul-Guimiliau and two commissions in Cléden-Cap-Sizun, Hôpital-Camfrout, Landerneau, La Martyre, Plabennec, Pleyben, Plogonnec, Saint-Nic, Saint-Servais and Saint-Urbain.

The Calvary at Guimiliau, completed in 1588, is located in Guimiliau, Brittany, in northwestern France. It is part of the Guimiliau "enclos paroissial".

The La Martyre Parish close is located in the arrondissement of Brest in Brittany in north-western France.

It was founded by the Rohan family and replaced an earlier church which had been called "Notre Dame du Merzer". The church is dedicated to the Breton King Salomon. Much of the church was restored after storm damage in 1450 but the ossuary is of a much later date, being built in 1619. The outstanding features are the south porch which is essentially flamboyant Gothic in style with a decorated entrance arch, the "porte triomphale" entrance and the ossuary. Inside the church there are some notable furnishings. The village owes its name to the assassination on 25 June 874 of King Salomon of Brittany, who had sought refuge in the village church. The church was called "la Martyre" after its desecration, and the name was taken up by the village. As for the king, he was canonised in 910 for his martyrdom.
