"In the Catharijneconvent Museum in Utrecht there hangs a panel painting whose diminutive size belies the magnificence of its contents (Plate I). Supporting a soaring canopy of rib vaults, two rows of polished marble columns mark the outer boundaries of the picture; their lower halves are concealed, however, by luminous winged altarpieces - most opened to display their gilt interiors, one decorated with paintings, and one still closed. But the sumptuousness of these material accoutrements carries little weight to the twenty-two tonsured men who fill the central space. With hands tucked into their gleaming white robes and mouths gently open as if in song, they gaze in quiet admiration at the Virgin Mary, dazzling with her loose golden locks and glittering crown, her gown of brocaded gold and purple velvet mantle, and the luminous infant she proffers to St. Dominic, the foremost friar. Whereas the phalanx of men forms a symmetrical buffer around the maiden and baby on the church's central axis, the scene is not wholly static. Following the steep orthogonals created jointly by architecture and figures, we discover the beginnings of movement as the two men farthest from our standpoint, thus deepest in the pictorial space, prepare to enter the choir"--

Une des pièces majeures du patrimoine de la cathédrale de Tournai est la magnifique série des vitraux dits des privilèges dans le bras droit (sud) du transept. Mis en parralèle avec les sculptures en pierre blanche du porche occidental, interprétés grâce aux documents inédits découverts dans les archives de la cathédrale, ils font revivre une page méconnue des relations entre la ville de Tournai et sa cathédrale. Après avoir fait le point sur le faux diplôme attribué au roi mérovingien Chipéric II, l'ouvrage confronte les vitraux tels qu'ils étaient à l'origine aux reliefs en pierre blanche du porche pour raconter la lutte entre Chilpéric et son frère Sigebert. Il passe ensuite en revue les différents privilèges fiscaux du chapitre, les met en contexte grâce aux renseignements tirés des archives et montre comment, jusqu'à la Révolution française, les chanoines de Tournai ont réussi à utiliser les médias du temps pour en bénéficier.
