Third Part of the Via Dolorosa is a 1619 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a street scene with two tall brick buildings and a banner above listing letters and short texts in Italian. Small figures walk or kneel near doorways marked with letters like D, E, and G. The buildings have simple windows and arches, and the ground is flat with no trees or nature—just stone and people. The banner at the top refers to the "Via Dolorosa," a path linked to a religious story. The letters likely mark key spots along that route, like houses or gates. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Callot made prints like this.
