To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even this is ornamented above with three litttle festoons of drapery.
PLATE LIU.
GREAT FOUNTAIN.
In Plate LIU. Is exhibited the garden, pseudo-garden or painted wall, and part of the inner portico of a dwelling, which, on account of the fountain here also repre- sented, caused a greater sensation at Naples than any previous discovery had created. The house was found in the month of June, 1820, and the excavation terminated in Oc- tober.
The arch or alcove of the fountain is, on the spot, termed... the grotto, and that is the name by which, at present, it may be found. The high wall was, at the time of its exca- vation, perfect ; and this drawing is, pro- bably, now the only record of its existence, the author having been fortunate enough to copy it before the painting fell. Had it 126 DESCRirXION OF gone no higher than the first row of panels of alternate yellow and blue, the effect would have been very pleasing ; but the upper line of pictures, one of which seemed to have represented a boar-hunt, destroyed the illu- sion.
