[M2.120L] [M2.120] 120
No 176, 177, 178.
The most important of the tomb inside the court I have
daguerred - it is remarkable for its bold and beautiful
brackets two carrying the canopy and two the sarcophagus
one of the latter is drawn on No 174 pure section
and front and side profile, the section of one of the
former on No 175 176, curious for its anomalously levelled
ridge in the middle; in the leaf lines the first inmost
is pure bracket section - the second the edge of leaf
the third the central rib of leaf - the way they rise out
of the roll is extraordinarily beautiful On the backs
part of this section is given as traced on the stone.
No 177 shows the shafts seen from inside I never
saw a vaulting rib so carried before.
