Ontwerp voor een plafondschildering met Diana en Endymion 1726

Jacob de Wit's "Ontwerp voor een plafondschildering met Diana en Endymion" (1726) is a preparatory drawing for a ceiling painting. The composition features the goddess Diana, a central figure, surrounded by clouds and several figures including cherubs, possibly representing the tale of Diana and Endymion. The design is characteristic of de Wit's style, with flowing lines and delicate washes of color. De Wit's drawing is a testament to his skill as a draftsman and his understanding of classical mythology. The drawing illustrates a typical Rococo design for a ceiling painting with a focus on movement and a sense of grandeur.
