The facade features the typical classical vertical division into three distinct sections - base, middle, and top. Although the base vaguely resembles stone masonry, it is actually simply constructed of mortar. 1901 <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/facade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>facade</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ornaments" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ornaments</span></a></p>
