The cornice is shown in Uffizi 1692 (2) (Fra Giocondo) Cornice trovata
soto terra in roma (Geymuller, Cento disegni di Fra Giocondo, p. 45), also
in Uffizi 1953 (lacopo Sansovino) without indication of locality. The
church meant is apparently S. Lorenzo in Miranda,1 for in a drawing
attributed to Antonio da Sangallo il vecchio (Uffizi 1600) an Ionic column
is described as a Santo lorenzino ackanto a S chosimo e dainiano ; though
neither the cornice nor the capital can belong to the temple of Antoninus
and Faustina. The cornice is somewhat like one in the Constantinian
portion of S. Lorenzo fuori le Mura.

Cf. Hulsen (Rom. Mitt. 1903, p. 35, Fig. 2), who gives a photograph
of a drawing by Dosio (Uffizi 2039) of the same cornice,2 bearing the
following note; ' questa cornice fu trovata vicino alarco di Camigliano,
ancora oggi si vede, girava in dentro era di nichio 0 per ornamento d' un
dentro di tempio? The ' arco di Camigliano' is a mediaeval name given
to a portion of the group of buildings formed by the Iseum and
Serapeum. The cornice also appears in Uffizi 486, 1703 (B. Peruzzi) 1541,
1882', 2050 (Fra Giocondo). It is curious that Jacques Prevost engraved
the same cornice (the measurements being identical) and noted : Hec est
extra urbein prope ecclesiam sancte agnetis 1537. (Passavant, Le Peintre-
graveur, vi. p. 129. No. 16.)
1 The only church dedicated to S. Lorenzo which was known as S. Lorenzino was, accord-
ing to Armellini, S. Lorenzo in Borgo (op. cit. 781), or de Piscibus. S. Lorenzo ai Monti (p. 164)
might also be meant. It lies in the S.W. exedra of Trajan's Forum.
2 The very slight disagreements in measurements may be disregarded.
