Currently in London and had a look around the Victoria and Albert museum where they have a cast of the porta della gloria. Unfortunately under restoration so photo isn't the best. The other item is a small statuet20190807_130941.jpg20190807_120832.jpg20190807_120913.jpgte.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
Portico in London's V&A is perhaps not the best copy ever, but it made me stop as well:) I will have a look at that charming small statue of St James. Thank you for that. If you happen to be in Marylebone, visit St James' Spanish Place. It is very close to Wallace Collection, a townhouse with fine decorative art collection and restaurant. Entrance is free. It is going to rain later on (surprise, surprise) to you can hide there.
