label: Description
content: Vertical sheet containing two sketches of belfries. The belfry at left is a small Gothic tower which projects from a tiled roof. The tower has a stonework lancet on all sides and small bell visible in the center. Its roof rises to a very narrow steeple and is adorned on all sides by very finely worked crockets. The other belfry at right is also Gothic in style but much more simple, rising from a short octagonal tower and encircled by a gallery. It has a paneled roof that rises to a narrow steeple with small ball finial at top.
