Piranesi was known for his architectural drawings and his fascination with ancient Roman ruins, which likely influenced the ornate and classical elements seen in these designs. The artwork’s intricate details and masterful use of light and shadow highlight the grandeur of the Rococo era, an artistic movement characterized by its opulent and extravagant aesthetics.
