Ancient marble urn in the garden of the Quirinal 

Giovanni Battista Piranesi's "Ancient marble urn in the garden of the Quirinal" is an etching depicting a decorative urn situated in a garden. The urn, made of marble, is adorned with ornate carvings featuring two winged figures holding cornucopias, birds, and a wolf attacking a boar. These elements symbolize the cyclical nature of life and the unpredictable nature of fate. The inscription on the urn further suggests a deeper meaning related to human life and its complexities. This engraving exemplifies Piranesi's skill in capturing the beauty and intricacies of classical architecture and sculpture.
