PLATE XXVII.
Reading edition
PLATE XXVII.
Elevation of a moresque pavilion (see the plan, plate xxv.) in the style of the ancient Moors, raised on three steps. Over the arches are Moors heads and festoons. In the middle is a circular or geometrical staircase, leading to the top, or balustrade. It is crowned with a square cupola, mounted with a moresque standard; and is very proper to be built on an eminence to command an extensive view.
