Giuseppe Maria Mazzuoli the Younger's "Pedestal with Relief of the Triumph of Ariadne" is a detailed pen and ink drawing depicting a classical-style pedestal with a relief scene of Ariadne's triumph. The central panel shows Ariadne riding in a chariot pulled by two panthers, representing her escape from the labyrinth and marriage to Dionysus, the god of wine. The ornate pedestal features detailed carvings, including winged figures and a decorative motif with a lyre. The drawing is a testament to Mazzuoli's skill in architectural design and his knowledge of classical mythology.
