This etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases intricate details of a doorway with a focus on the decorative molding, carving, and profile. The artist uses delicate lines and shading to depict the complex ornamentation, emphasizing the craftsmanship involved in creating such architectural elements.
