A sense of scale - The Polygonal Foundation Walls of Cusco, Peru

In this old photo we get a sense of scale, with the wall standing at least 3 times the height of a man. It’s smooth curvature and tightly fitted joints make it seem modern in comparison to the colonial architecture of the cathedral built on top. It’s construction style is similar to the upper walls on previous pages, but much more smoothed out and squared.
