This anonymous drawing, created between 1700-1780, depicts a stage set of a room interior with a receding perspective. The artist uses pen and wash to create a detailed and realistic depiction of the interior space. The artist uses the technique of linear perspective to create a sense of depth, making the space look larger and more grand. This type of stage set design was common in the 18th century, and it helped to create a more immersive and theatrical experience for audiences. The drawing is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
