These are based upon a very exact knowledge of the processes of building. There are some of singular interest in the work on the discoveries at Pergamon, by Pontremoli and Collignon ('Pergame,' Paris 1900) ; in the kindred work on 'Epidauros' by Def rasse and Lechat, Paris 1895; also in a three-volume book called (La Restauration d'Olympie' by Laloux and Monceaux. In such drawings a building will be shown complete and in use, with figures near it and passing up and down its flights of steps, or seated on its stone benches. |
