content: Vertical composition of a tabernacle. Top: The elevation of the facade of a church with a dome. Below is a dado, the plan of which is concave, as is that of the first story. The second story is convex. A pedestal with a statue of the Arisen Christ is on top. Statues stand on the entablature of both stories. The panels of the right sides of either story are decorated with statues in niches, as one stands in the central panel of the upper story. The right half of the plan of the first story is on the bottom.
