Altar of Notre-Dame la Blanche[modifier le code]

My French is read-only at best, so please forgive me, but I'll have to write this in English.
You might be interested to know I've uploaded a reconstruction drawing for the Altar of Notre-Dame la Blanche: img.
The two flanking statues, badly damaged and heavily restored, survive in the Bourges Cathedral: Duke img, Duchess img.
The Duke's original head is in the Berry Museum; I couldn't find a free photo, but here it is at Joconde: link.
Their original appearance has been recorded by Hans Holbein the Younger: drawing 1, drawing 2.
Angels are supposed to be in the Berry Museum, too, but I can't find them.
The Virgin has been badly damaged and heavily restored, too, and is currently in the Bourges Cathedral, as well; I couldn't find a photo of it either, though.
I've written a bit about it all in en:List of portrait drawings by Hans Holbein the Younger#Kunstmuseum Basel. Please, write there if you need any help or clarification.
My main source was this paper: jstor link.
There is also some information in this book: metmuseum link.
