[M.72L] [M.72] No 52, 53, 54 Ca’ Dandolo 72 are marked at the side; and as far as my eye could tell, I [diagram] think the single stone which forms the cusp on each side of arch, is a little altered towards the reverse curve between d & e, before it comes to the joint, thus differing in system from the 5th order windows: In the section fig 4 I cannot be positively certain that the roll is greater than a [diagram] but I think so: I could not reach it. I think the chamfer is slightly ch but am not certain even of this. Note however the flat cavetto which is certain and somewhat flat dentil. This section gives true interval between dentils on pil. head that between those on shaft head is about 6in. No 52. Fig 1 - 2: profile, real size, joining at x: of the Capitals shaft head on the left of the arch fig 1 No 51. This shaft head is the simplest possible Lombard: [diagram] the angle leaves being mere truncations, not ribbed or in any wise touched; and the base of the leaf when it falls on roll, is hardly rounded; the plan being as at A opposite, and the space a b, (root of leaf) = 2¾ in and b-c (interval) (rounded) 5¼ Fig 3 represents the side look of the truncation; real size, & shows distance from angle of abacus. The entire circumference at x is 2 " 7 at y 2 " 3½ halfway down shaft still 2 " 3½ ! and at base of shaft only 2 " 4½ The real base however is concealed
