Ontwerp voor een grafmonument 1738 - 1749

"Ontwerp voor een grafmonument" (Design for a Tomb Monument) is a 1738-1749 etching by John Ingram, a British artist known for his architectural designs. The artwork showcases an elaborate design for a tomb monument, featuring a central sarcophagus flanked by angels and set within a grand architectural framework with a large arched window. The drawing's detailed ornamentation reflects the architectural ideals of the Rococo period, characterized by ornate curves and decorative flourishes. The image, likely a proposal for a specific commission, offers a glimpse into the decorative aspirations of the era and the skilled hand of John Ingram, who was active in the mid-18th century.
