This drawing, created between 1677 and 1755 by Dutch artist Elias van Nijmegen (1667-1755), depicts a fountain surrounded by statues of Apollo and Diana in a garden setting. The scene is framed by two large columns and a vaulted archway adorned with detailed foliage. The artist's use of delicate grey tones and subtle shading creates a sense of depth and perspective, capturing the beauty of the imagined garden design. The drawing exemplifies the classicism and formal aesthetic favored in Dutch art during this period.
