label: Description
content: In the shape of a triumphal arch, with a single high and narrow opening in the center part. Below is a dado, above the entablature is an attic. The wall in the center part is treated like rustic work. The entablature is supported on either side, near the corners, by two columns, inside by one only. In the lateral panels is a niche with a standing female figure, and a circular pediment above, above which is a trophy. Projecting pillar strips correspond at the attic to the columns. Figures stand in front of them. A relief is in the panel of the lateral parts; an inscription in that of the central part. It has a circular pediment, and tow figures sitting with an escutcheon. The left part is the plan and at right the scale.
