Title	Byzantine Baptistery 2
Description	This image is a watercolor conceptual painting of a Byzantine baptistery done by David Rogers sometime between 1917 and 1942. The painting shows a side view of the interior of a church baptistery with its baptismal pool, columns and arches, decorative ceiling, and a wall with arched windows in the background. The painting is placed with framing art including Byzantine designs, a detailed side view of a column with a cross, a floor plan and a cross-section interior view of the baptistery. On the lower right above the floor plan there is an Alabama Polytechnic Institute School of Architecture stamp with the handwritten inscription "2nd Medal HC" in blue. The painting is in poor condition, missing two large pieces and with a tear running lengthwise through it and is encapsulated.
