About this work

This drawing shows four views of a chapel. You see flat walls, arches, and stairs marked with letters. Tiny dots fill the walls like bricks. Some spots have crosses or small circles. The text below names parts like "sepulchre" and "scale." It looks like a guide for building something. Want to know more? Check out etching to see how artists make prints like this.
