Elevation of a Passage Plan is a 1619 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a long, narrow hallway with steps and small rooms branching off. The walls are marked with lines and labels like "A. Rota" and "D. porte." There are three smaller sketches of arches and doorways labeled E, F, and G. The text lists parts of the space in Italian, like "ingresso" (entrance) and "spelonche" (possibly small rooms). This looks like a detailed plan for a building’s layout. Next, check out etching to see how artists like Callot made prints like this.
