Giuseppe Galli Bibiena's "Design for a Stage Set: Longitudinal Section and Plan of amphitheater and Stage" is a detailed architectural drawing from 1696-1756. The design incorporates a grand amphitheater with a vast stage, showcasing the elaborate and visually stunning stage designs that were common in the Baroque era. Bibiena's work was influential in the development of theatrical design, as he used perspective and illusion to create a sense of depth and grandeur on stage. This drawing exemplifies Bibiena's mastery of perspective and his ability to create a sense of architectural awe.
