Aerial view of the large houses in Augustoritum Lemovicum (Limoges). The drawing is in portrait format. It is organized within a frame drawn in ink. Traces of watercolor and graphite are visible in the margins. Inscriptions appear on the reverse.
The drawing depicts two wealthy domus on the edge of the forum. Both houses have an imposing common entrance opening onto a colonnade. Both houses are built in a similar fashion: a courtyard with gardens surrounded by peristyles, which opens onto the living quarters at the rear. The Cardo Maximus can be seen to the right of the drawing.
