FENESTEL'LA or FENESTREL'LA. Diminutive of FENESTRA. A small window, or one which is less than the usual size. (Columell. viii. 3. 3. Pallad. i. 24.) The annexed illustration (Fenestella/1.1) represents two of the windows in the house of the Tragic Poet at Pompeii, on the street side. They are situated on the ground floor, at a height of six feet six inches above the pavement, and are not quite three feet by two in size. By the side of each is a wooden frame for the shutter to slide into when the window was opened.
