content: The wall is bordered by two pillars with rustic work having on top a ball upon a foot. At right is a gate wing, consisting of iron railings. At left, a column is suggested instead of the pillars. It has a band, in the height of the entablature of the wall, around the shaft, with "1789". On top is the ball crowned with an obelisk. The widths of the column and of the gate wing are inscribed; so is the height of the plinth of the column. Written in it is: "questo" and below: "colonna Miliare".
