The points of the arches are framed with a continuous molding that curls into a loop at the top of each arch, and stucco carved niches and medallions alternate in the spandrels of each arcade.[9] Crenellation crowns the arches, and is also carved in stucco.[2] Relieving oculi penetrate the spandrels of the second row of arches, and at each corner[9] and the middle of each wall of the courtyard a small domicile with a mabkhara contains a bright blue bulb of glass.[1]
