This etching by Italian artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi, titled *Drie vazen waarvan een op voetstuk* (Three Vases, One on a Pedestal), was created in 1778, the year of the artist's death. The piece features three intricate vases with classical ornamentation, each with a unique design, and the largest vase is placed on a pedestal decorated with cherubs, foliage, and a sculpted head. It is a captivating study in detail and form, showcasing Piranesi's virtuosity in architectural drawing and his passion for classical aesthetics.
