This 1661 engraving by Jean Lepautre, titled *Titelblad: Tombeaux ou Mozoles*, depicts a monumental design for a tomb. The elaborate composition features two winged figures flanking a central figure. Lepautre, renowned for his architectural designs and engravings, was active in France during the late Baroque period. This design reflects the period's taste for dramatic, elaborate compositions often seen in grand tombs and monuments. The print was published in Paris by Pierre Marotte. *Titelblad: Tombeaux ou Mozoles* exemplifies Lepautre's mastery of composition and design and provides insight into the architectural vision of the 17th century.
