Marks and inscriptions
The Church is Palladio's, very accurately represented. A man of the name of Scamozzi is publishing the complete works of Palladio in 4 vols fol. Two are finished (price 50 livres each) which contain Vicenza and its environs. The Hotel de Ville and the Theatre happen unfortunately to be two of the worst plates (footnote in William Bankes' hand)
