Drawings Attributed to Andreas Coner.

49
97. (76') 76 is blank.
'arci titi et uespasianil
The cornice beneath the frieze just above the archway. (Canina,
Edifizi, iv. tav. 246).
98. (77) a. ' in S. marco.'
This architrave is no longer to be seen in the church and I know no
mother mention of it.
A ' c(orona) roto(n)da in domo porcaribns.'
For the house of the Porcari family cf. Lanciani, Forma Urbis 21,
.Storia degli Scavi, i. 116 sq. I can find no record of this entablature, but it
may have belonged to one of the circular halls of the Baths of Agrippa
within the area of which their house stood.
The next six drawings (99-104) are all by the later hand.
99. (77v)
An unnamed entablature (perhaps a mere invention). Like 101 and
103, it is faulty in profile, and if copied from an actual entablature, it is
copied inaccurately. The frieze closely resembles part of that shown in
Vignola, Regola delli cinque ordini d'Arckitettura, tav. 26, but the cornice
does not. Vignola, however, states that his drawing was composed of
various elements, questa cornice Corintia e cauata da diversi luogki di
Roma, ma principalmente dalla rotonda, e dalle tre colonne eke sono nel foro
Romano.
100. (78') 78 is blank. Three friezes.
a. ' Alle Terme d'Antonino.'
A fragment of this frieze is to be seen in the Frigidarium of the baths
of Caracalla, and also in both the peristyles. The height varies from
52 to 56 cm.: the blocks are of various thicknesses (from 22 to 54 cm.).
The dog is not the only animal represented—in the north peristyle a boar
takes its place; in the south a panther, a lion, and a stag occur as
variations.
b. 'A Tiuoli.'
This I have not as yet identified.
c. 'In campo Vaccino.' The frieze of the temple of Antoninus and
Faustina. (Canina, op. cit. ii. tav. 25.)
