Hi,
The cathedral is decorated with early mosaics---scenes from hell , much restored, when you fix up a damaged or worn work of art, you are said to 'restore it', ie return it to its original condition

and a great sad, austere simple, stern, non-frivolous in appearance
Madonna,... the Mother of God
please explain the whole sentence to me. Is there anything else you don't understand?
