[414] In our illustration the same capital is distinguished by a letter, the two sides by 1 and 2, the monograms reading in the direction of the reference to their position. Those of “N. Aisle” for instance read from left side of page.
[415] Two varieties of monograms on capitals at S. Mark’s have been the subject of much study which Cattaneo sums up in Boïto’s text of the great monograph on S. Mark’s, but they have never been deciphered. One (see Photos, vol. ii., p. 127) is a perfect example of Justinian; three which show in capitals of the upper stage south side are perfect examples of Basileos—if corresponding monograms probably on the hidden sides of these capitals are examined, they too may be found to contain the Justinian monogram. For monograms at S. Sergius see Byz. Zeit. for 1894.
