Figures on a Monumental Interior Stairway [recto]

Hubert Robert, valószínűleg kb. 1754/1765

The image contains a series of gentle, curving lines and soft shading that create an abstract representation of an internal architectural space. The shapes suggest the structure of an arched passageway or arcade. Figures are lightly sketched, appearing as silhouettes or shadows. The interplay of lines and forms may bring to mind the concept of movement within an architectural setting.
