Register or Login to view.The attached image illustrates my ideas regarding the drawing representing the aerial view of cloisters with an ajoining herb garden. The cloisters have a X Shaped paths rather than the more common + Shaped paths. In the centre of the cloisters there is statue. Obviously I have a very specific location in mind.
That's what it looks like to me too. In fact, I must have looked at about 4,000 aerial photos of gardens, searching for the X shaped style (they are in the minority) and saved all the ones I could find on my hard drive (this was about 8 or 9 years ago). I still haven't had time to evaluate them.
I did find one very good architectural drawing that matches quite well. I don't know how hard it would be for me to locate it in my files (maybe minutes, maybe days).
Well, I certainly have looked at a number, but I found the one that I associate with that drawing, as it was the only cloisters that fit closely with where I expected the bottom right rosette to be geographically given my "map" model of the page and also I think the resemblance is striking.
In the context of my own personal model this is by far and away the most important identification on the 9 rosette page.
