This anonymous design for a ceiling, dating from the 18th century, is a prime example of the Rococo style. The delicate lines create a sense of movement and dynamism in the intricate geometric pattern. This drawing, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, is a testament to the skillful artistry of the Rococo era.
