The drawing depicts a triumphal arch, or "Triomfbogen," and includes various decorative elements. Most prominent are two cat heads, with a more detailed rendering of one, framed within a square. This drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Dijsselhof's interest in classical architecture and decorative design, capturing the intricate details he envisioned for a grand structure.
