Giovanni Battista Piranesi, an Italian artist known for his etchings of Roman architecture, created this fantastical design for an Egyptian-style fireplace. The central element of the design is a fire, with two figures, possibly sphinxes, supporting a large sculpted cartouche that features a pharaoh. The fireplace is framed by highly detailed, intricate Egyptian-inspired motifs, including hieroglyphics, that emphasize the fantastical nature of this design. Piranesi's work often explored the relationship between history and imagination, and this etching serves as a prime example of this theme.
