IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

                                       This image is based, as accurately as I
could manage, on a 19th century pen and ink drawing of a 16th century building.
I found the drawing in a book "Architecture Drawings" ( Pepin Press ISBN 90
5496 041 8 ) . Rather late in the project I thought of searching the Web . I
was surprised to find that the building still exists and is still occupied.
However I could not find a photo of the courtyard.
                                         So this image is my interpretation of
the drawing of the courtyard in the Palazzo Borghese in Rome. Though it may or
may not match exactly the existing courtyard it still represents a 16th century
style of architecture.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

                                          This is all simple CSG. The statues
are spheres and cylinders.
