. English ironwork of the XVIIth & XVIIIth centuries; an historical & analytical account of the development of exterior smithcraft. , sup-ported by two large scrolls of bold? acanthus and rosettes, finishing abovein Tijous well-known cocks-headsand acanthus, and surmounted by amask over a table with panel with its pilasters is lofeet 6 inches high and 13 feet 4 inchesbroad. The pilasters present a ver-tical treatment of scrolls endingabove in curved and moulded,archi-traves under an imperial crown andacanthus. Almost half the detail inTijous engraving is omitted in exe-cution, both improving the designand reducing the cost. The three fine gates (Plate iv) inthe garden or east front of thePalace present another example ofTijous richest work, and as theystand within the shelter of the triplearch, they remain in perfect pre-servation. Each consists of an ob-long panel half the height of thegate, over a wide and richly workedf- lock-rail, with a square panel FIG. 10. ONE GATE OF THE TWO T. r PAIRS. OF SIDE GATES.
