This 19th century anonymous drawing, "Designs for Two Candelabras and Two Urns," from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, shows four detailed designs for decorative objects. The drawings depict a variety of Rococo and Neoclassical styles, with each design incorporating intricate floral and figural elements, including stylized female figures and winged putti. These designs likely served as inspiration for the creation of actual candelabras and urns, highlighting the artistic exchange between design and craft in the 19th century.
