[M.74L] [M.74]
No 55, 56, 57 Capitals 58, 59 74
Q Doge’s palace upper arcade. R. from 12th house, No 55
[diagram] S. Great Foscari, from No 56 T. Ca’ d’Oro from
No 16.
Compare with D plinth of church near M. d’Orto
No 50 D. is the beautiful window of Abbazia
U. Early Lombard from St Marks No 57.
This capital is one of the small arcade which
runs along under the great screen, with a bit of its
arabesque above, but it is much effaced by time &
wear of crowd: The rude projection of its leafage
is merely a form of bad cutting.
E2 Fondaco de Turchi No 58-59 on the latter
leaf: the head is the real size of that on the inner side
of my red column. Doge’s Palace showing its placing in
cavetto. A. profile of the pillar on the right of No 58
seen on its angle.
V. Abacus from Duomo Verona No 3.
W. Lombard from Milan, No 2.
Now I think in all three, I can distinguish: first
the bell proper: either square or round headed: of
the profile a opposite in A B B2 and perhaps D. and
of profile b in C E2 and F and perhaps I Then
consider this bell becoming c opposite in K.G.H.M. and W.
vide p 77.
