This pen and ink drawing, "Antike Trümmer an einem Fluss, links eine Sphinx," by Dutch artist Isaac de Moucheron, depicts a classical ruin situated by a river. The drawing features a prominent tree on the right, a series of columns and arches left of center, and a distant cityscape in the background. De Moucheron was known for his detailed landscapes with classical ruins, which was a popular genre during the 17th and 18th centuries. This drawing exemplifies the artist’s talent for capturing the delicate details of nature and the grandeur of ancient architecture.
