Design after the monument of Leonardo Loredano 1625 - 1700

This architectural drawing, "Design after the monument of Leonardo Loredano," was created between 1625 and 1700 by Italian artist Antonio Francesco Luccini. The detailed pen-and-ink drawing depicts a grand, classical-style monument with intricate details. The monument features a central figure flanked by two smaller figures, all seated on a pedestal. The structure is adorned with decorative elements including a pediment, columns, and a relief scene. This design, which likely served as a blueprint for a real monument, showcases the artistic sensibilities of the period and the influence of classicism on architectural design. The drawing is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
