Plan and Elevation of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is a 1619 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a small building with a dome on top, two tall columns, and arched windows. Below it, there’s a floor plan with walls and rooms marked out in simple lines. The whole thing is drawn in black and white, with some text in Italian on a scroll. The text is a note about building the church without too much trouble. The drawing looks like a sketch for a real place, not just a random design. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Callot made prints like this.
Jacques Callot was a baroque printmaker and draftsman from the Duchy of Lorraine.
