It is bordered by two fluted columns, without capitals, supporting statues, and by short pieces of the wall in the same height as the columns, without horizontal tallies. In front of them are crouching lions, upon pedestals, with the heads turned toward the entrance. Laterally are short pieces of the lower wall.
