Stefano della Bella's "Cartouche for Le Pont Neuf" is a delicate pen and wash drawing. It depicts a heraldic cartouche, with the shield at the center, and a pair of winged putti flanking either side. The cartouche is topped by a crown with a shell-like structure. This drawing was created between 1610 and 1664, the years of della Bella's life. It is now located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY.
