The artwork depicts an elaborate clock flanked by two female figures, a table with ornate legs, and two matching candelabra. The intricate details and use of classical motifs highlight the grandeur and sophistication of 18th-century design, typical of the Rococo period. Piranesi's works, often featuring architectural elements and decorative arts, reflect the prevailing artistic tastes of his time. This etching, with its focus on furniture design, demonstrates his keen eye for detail and mastery of line.
