Gezicht op een gedeelte van het toneel en de muur daarachter van het theater van Taormine 1778

This 1778 drawing by Louis Ducros is a detailed depiction of the ancient Greek theatre in Taormina, Sicily. The artwork captures the grandeur of the theatre's ruins, with its arched entrances, crumbling walls and stone columns. The composition is typical of Ducros's work, with a focus on the architectural details and a sense of historical perspective. Small figures are included to show the scale of the structure, and the use of light and shadow adds depth and realism to the scene. This artwork is a testament to the enduring beauty of classical architecture and the historical significance of the site.
