Bezoek aan de marmergroeve is a 1796 oil by Léonard Defrance, held at Musée Marmottan Monet.
This painting shows a group of people working together in a large, rocky space. They are all dressed in old-fashioned clothing and are using various tools to construct something. Some of them are standing on ladders or platforms, while others are kneeling or sitting on the ground. In the center of the painting, a large piece of material is being worked on by several people. It appears to be some kind of fabric or textile, and they are using hammers and other tools to shape it into a specific form. The background of the painting is dominated by the rocky walls of the space, which are rough and uneven. The artist who created this painting is Léonard Defrance.
