Outside

Made by Galleria.

A publication discovered by David Miller (L.I. 1954-1961) contains an article written in 1838 that states, "This façade has only a single range of windows, above which is a series of panels, to be filled with bassi-rilievi, to be executed by members and pupils of the Institute; in addition to which it is proposed to crown the pediment of the portico with a goupe of figures."

We've found no evidence that the proposed additions were ever made prior to the panels being replaced with windows in 1929.
