This design for a grave monument for Princess Anastasiya Trubetskaya, created by Edme Bouchardon between 1708 and 1762, is a simple inscription on a sheet of paper. The inscription is written in Latin and includes the phrase "Here lies the most pious princess" and a reference to the date of her death. The design is currently in the Rijksmuseum. While the design is simple, it provides insight into the importance of inscription in funerary monuments of the Baroque period.
