content: A variation of 1938-88-1337. The walls have no entablature, and the width of the pediments is only a trifle greater than that of the doorframes. They are supported by two consoles, and have acroteria above their lower corners (These details are drawn only at the front). In the band around the column is a frieze with a row of figures. The motif on the top is similar to 1938-88-1303.
