<strong>Brick</strong>_<strong>Wood</strong>_<strong>Stone</strong>_<strong>Land</strong>_<strong>Water</strong>_<strong>Measurement</strong><br />

The colonnade columns were originally constructed <strong>of</strong> pie-shaped bricks covered probably with unpainted<br />

brownish stucco to resemble stone and its bases and capitals were cut from stone. Jefferson himself wondered<br />

Would it not be best to make the internal columns <strong>of</strong> well-burnt brick, moulded in portions <strong>of</strong> circles<br />

adapted to the diminution <strong>of</strong> the columns?<br />

Architect for the Lawn, Murray Howard, 26 Aug. 1996<br />
