43 i COTTAGE, FARM, AND VILLA ARCHITECTURE. in the Tarentaise, by the eminent geologist Bakewell. All the chimneys arc in the interior wall, which brings the shafts exteriorly to the highest part of the general mass, and completes what Hogarth, in his Anali/sis of Beauty, calls the painter's pyramid. It is always more satisfactory to see chimneys issuing from the highest part of the roof, than from the side walls, or from any lower part ; because the rising sides of the roof seem to conspire in supporting what issues out of its apex, as the leaves of a plant seem to support the flower stem which proceeds from its centre, or the spreading lower branches of a fir tree do its spiry top.
