Description | Degree of progress in the rebuilding of the great dome of the Holy Sepulchre. Arcades that surmount the pillars of the rotunda entirely built as they were before the fire of 1808. Reconstruction of the first base of the drum which forms the cornice which surmounts these arches. The stones of the first four foundations cut and their installation started. All the work on the drum is probably finished in two and a half months after Mr Mauss's return from Paris with the[illegible] lead weights that make up the hemispherical cap of the dome and his new team of workers. P.S. June 22, 1867: laying of six foundations of the drum of the great dome on the eighteen foundations of which it will be formed. The stones of the upper cornice forming the last almost entirely cut foundation. (pp. 347-348) |
