Rather than a finished view of a building, this sheet shows how a church was worked out on paper: a plan of the cupola, a side elevation, and a drawing of the window glass as seen from inside, including its size and shape. Plan and elevation drawings like these let builders check proportions and the placement of openings before construction began, and the cupola plan shows how the central feature of the roof sat over the space below. The record dates the sheet to between 1910 and 1930 and identifies this image as a black-and-white film copy negative from the Library of Congress's Wittemann Collection.
