St Anast. Gate Tomb

The measurements are continued from Notebook M2 p.118L. The reference is to the Castelbarco tomb at the church of St. Anastasia in Verona - see Works, 9.175 and the illustration facing Works, 9.176; Works, 10.304 where it is seen as ‘one of the purest Gothic monuments in the world’; and the illustration facing Works, 19.451 [n/a]. At Notebook M2 p.118 Castelbarco tomb is full of ‘extraordinary energy’ (and see the footnote at Works, 9.175; the illustration facing Works, 9.176, and Sheet No. 175; Sheet No. 175B; Sheet No. 176; Sheet No. 177; Sheet No. 178).
