Excerpt from Dictionnaire Raisonne de l'Architecture Francaise du Xie au Xvie Siecle, Vol. 6 Voici (3) le gable du portail meridional de Notre - Dame de Paris. La balustrade et la galerie passent derriere ce gable qui n'est autre chose qu'un mur triangulaire isole de c. D'epaisseur. D'autres gables, plus petits, surmontent les niches qui accompagnent ce portail, et forment ainsi une grande dentelure a la base de l'edifice. Nous avons dit ailleurs 2 comment les constructeurs du moyen age s'etaient servis de ces gables decoratifs pour charger les sommets des arcs - formerets et empecher leur gauchissement.
