label: Description
content: The elevation is on top. The design of the pavilion is a variation of that of -2126. Projecting volutes upon bases and groups of pilasters are suggested, respectively, to flank the arches. The upper basin of the fountain is supported by a shaft. Half of the plan is shown at the bottom. Its right half has been worked over in order to become similar to that of -2125. The left side of a corresponding elevation is sketched at the bottom, right. The vases are not shown.
