This 19th-century watercolor by Charles Monblond depicts a design for an arched doorway. The doorway features intricate details, including a central medallion with a depiction of a putto amidst a floral motif. The surrounding frame is adorned with delicate scrolls, acanthus leaves, and a central cartouche. The design, rendered in muted tones of blue, pink, and brown, reflects the classical style popular in the 19th century. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City houses this detailed and elegant design.
