Note 22 — LETTER XLIII. NAPLES.
Reading edition
In 1827 I found the solids of this edifice completed. It is a large domical building with two wings, formed by two colonnades each of a quarter of a circle. I do not much like either the masses or the details. The situation is bad; it ought to have been on the hill, not under it; and by offering a second object in the Largo del Palazzo it destroys the unity of the scene.
