This architectural drawing, created by an anonymous artist, depicts the monumental tomb for Pope Innocent XI. The elaborate design features a central sarcophagus adorned with a papal crown and surrounded by ornate columns, draped with opulent fabric. The tomb is illuminated by numerous candle holders, while the eagle at the top symbolizes the papal authority. Created in the late 17th century, the drawing showcases the grand scale and opulent detail typical of Baroque architecture. The intricate depiction provides a glimpse into the artistic vision and the commemorative practices of the time.
