(31.) A single niche and part of the iron-work of the Tomb of Can Signorio. (R.)
As seen from the palace of the Scaligers; the remains of another house of the same family are seen in the little street beyond.
(32.) Study of details of the top of the Tomb of Can Signorio. (R.)
Needing more work than I had time for, and quite spoiled by hurry; but interesting in pieces here and there; look, for instance, at the varied size and design of the crockets; and beauty of the cornices.
(33.) Bracket under Sarcophagus of Giovanni della Scala. (A.)
Characteristic of the finest later treatment of flowing foliage.
251. (34.) Part of the front of the Ducal Palace, Venice. (R.)
Sketched, in 1852, by measurement, with extreme care; and showing the sharp window traceries, which are rarely seen in Photographs.
(35.) Angle of the Ducal Palace, looking Seaward from the Piazzetta. (R.)
Sketched last year, (restorations being threatened) merely to show the way in which the light is let through the edges of the angle by penetration of the upper capital, and of the foliage in the sculpture below; so that the mass may not come unbroken against the sky.
