Notes

This almost square panel is a smaller companion to the drawings in Adam vol.26/56 and 57, and like them it may be taken from one of the temples in the Roman Forum. Although, unlike those drawings, this is not initialled by Nicolas-François-David Lhuiller (d.1793), the style of drawing is much the same.
