The ceiling is a lavish confection of modillion cornice and a centre rose. |
The modillion was a bracket, a horizontal version of the ancones which supported the cornice of the Greek doorway cornice. |
The craftsmen removed and replaced 335 modillion brackets and 1200 feet of two-layered cornice running the perimeter of the roof level. |
The windows are surmounted by rusticated wooden jack arches with superimposed keystones, and a heavy modillion cornice crowns the bold Georgian proportions of the facade. |
