1. Walk: describe the dome, lower route and raised terrace in three separate phrases. Which feature can you see, and which do you know from source 2?

2. Sign: select a detail in either relief. Write one observation, one sourced interpretation and the name of the source. Keep a narrative title separate from proof of an event.

3. Gift: record one fact about patrons or craftspeople from source 3 or 4. Distinguish occupation, donation and building material. Does your evidence name a donor, a worker, or neither?

4. Question: choose one construction or conservation phase. Record its date separately from the photograph’s date, then write one question that remains open.
