If I have to choose...

L-Ecclesia R-Synagoga

I'd say Synagoga looks way cooler than Ecclesia.
Ecclesia et Synagoga is a sculptural depiction of the Church and the Jewish synagogue found on the façades of churches across Europe. (-Wikipedia)
Ecclesia - Church. Synagoga - Synagogue
Apparently, the veil around Synagoga's eyes is supposed to say that the Jewish people are blind towards the new.. uh.. something.. or another.
Time has robbed me off that bit of information D:
(Basically, the Jewish failing to see how awesome and great Christianity is.. which is why Ecclesia is look forward with riches (crown etc.) confidently and Synagoga looks sad and depressed with the Torah falling from her hands.. and that's the best I can do at the moment)
[For fun: The Torah falling from her hand always consists of five slabs of stone to signify the five books of Moses which is uh, very important to them.. I think]
