Design for Ceiling 1700 - 1800

"Design for Ceiling" is a detailed drawing by Italian artist Leonardo Marini, dating back to the 18th century. The intricate design, executed in delicate pencil lines, showcases the Rococo style, popular in the era. This architectural design, possibly intended for a grand palace or a private residence, features a ceiling adorned with ornate, asymmetrical motifs, including garlands of flowers, scrolls, and geometric patterns, all meticulously rendered by Marini. The drawing, currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the Rococo era.
