Pay a special attention to Louis XII and Anne de Bretagne mausoleum.
It is actually the only one in the Basilica on which I could easily remark the change in style.
Most of the effigies are presenting the kings and queens sleeping or praying but having a lifelike image.
Behing the gorgeous decoration, Louis XII and Anne de Bretagne faces are tortured by the cruel death.

Although not very tall or strong, some of them seemed no taller than a 12 yo kid, almost all the kings were represented with huge feet.
