XXI. Second Greek or Branchidæ Room, thirty feet by twenty-four.—The height both of this and the four succeeding rooms should be about twenty feet. This would contain the earliest Greek sculptures, of which the principal are those procured by Mr. Newton from Branchidæ. The ten seated statues would be arranged on each side, as in the ‘Sacred Way’ at that place, and the recumbent inscribed lion and the sphinx placed at the end of the room.
Third Greek Room.
XXII. Third Greek Room, twenty-four feet by seventeen.—This would contain other archaic works, including the casts from Selinus.
Fourth Greek Room.
XXIII. Fourth Greek or Æginetan Room, thirty-eight feet by twenty-four.—Here would be fixed, in two recesses, the restorations of the two pedimental groups from Ægina, which are exactly of the length of this room, and which might be placed at a more convenient level for examination than their present elevated position in room.
Fifth Greek Room.
XXIV. Fifth Greek Room, seventeen feet by twenty-four.—On a pedestal, facing the great Greek gallery, might stand the semi-archaic Apollo, from Byzantium.
Sixth Greek Room.
XXV. Sixth Greek or Phigaleian Room, thirty-eight feet by twenty-four.—Here would be the casts from the Temple of Theseus, and the sculptures and casts from the Temple of Wingless Victory, both of the middle of the fifth century, B.C.; also the Phigaleian collection, which is a somewhat later production of the same school. The friezes, arranged in two rows, would just fill the room.
Seventh Greek Room.
