This 18th century drawing, created by an anonymous artist, depicts a detailed design for an ornate urn. The urn is adorned with intricate details, including a decorative lid, draped fabric, and a grotesque mask on the body. It rests upon a stand with elaborate scrolled feet, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail prevalent in 18th-century decorative arts. This drawing is a testament to the enduring interest in classical motifs and the refinement of design during this period, and is a prime example of the artistry involved in creating decorative objects.
