- Description:
- Figures 3, 4 and 5 show examples from the classicist period. These doors are made up of two panels, the lower of which protrudes above the level of the jambs. For construction reasons and to prevent water from seeping into the projecting panel, the upper frieze is covered by a picture rail projecting beyond the whole. The transition is created by a waterfall. (N. Ries, Aug. van Werveke, Les Cahiers luxembourgeois, Janvier 1925/III, pp.227-228 [translated from French])
