About this work

This drawing shows a top-down layout of a building with lots of small dots marking rooms and halls. There’s a big main block with wings on each side, plus a smaller section below it connected by a path. The lines are simple, almost like a floor plan—no color, just black marks on a light background. The tiny dots might stand for windows or doors, but they’re not labeled here. The artist’s name, *M. Denman*, is written at the bottom, along with the title *Plan of the Palace of Carnac*. If you like this kind of detailed architectural sketch, check out the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
