Fireplace: in the frieze, sacrificing two fauns, including winged genii; high on the wall, the figure of a woman lying in a shell 

This etching by Giovanni Battista Piranesi, an Italian architect and artist, depicts a fireplace with elaborate ornamentation. The frieze features a scene of sacrificing fauns, while a reclining female figure in a shell occupies the upper wall. Piranesi's etchings were popular in the 18th century for their intricate detail and evocative imagery. This specific image exemplifies the Neoclassical style, drawing inspiration from Roman and Greek antiquity. His work would inspire generations of architects and artists.
