This 17th-century anonymous drawing depicts a design for a table with ornate legs, a popular style during the Baroque period. The intricate details and the use of pen and ink demonstrate the artist's meticulous attention to detail. The table design, characterized by swirling, asymmetrical, and highly stylized forms, is a testament to the Rococo style’s emphasis on elaborate decoration and ornamental features. The artwork is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
