Title page, from "The Seven Sacrements" 1767

This title page from Lorenzo Zucchi's "The Seven Sacraments" (1767) is a beautiful example of Rococo engraving. It depicts a classical architectural scene with an inscription that reads: "The Seven Sacraments of Giuseppe Grepi Dedicated to the Most Serene Highness of Federico II, King of Prussia." The use of light and shadow, along with the intricate details of the architecture and the cherubic figures, are characteristic of the Rococo style. The work is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
