H Beard Print Collection

About this work

This is a drawing from the early 1700s. It shows a corridor inside a fancy building. The artist used pen and diluted ink, called wash, to make the scene. Giuseppe Bibiena drew this for the Harry Beard Print Collection. He was known for stage designs, but this is an architectural study. The lines make the hallway look deep and layered. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of their prints.
