Alcune Prospettive is a 1753 ink by Giuseppe Antonio Landi, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a black-and-white architectural drawing framed like a grand building. At the top, a small portrait sits inside a decorative arch, flanked by two tall vases. Columns and ornate details fill the scene, giving it a fancy, staged look. The text below is in Italian, wrapped around the frame in a neat, old-fashioned script. The drawing is actually a print, not a painting—made using lines cut into metal. The artist signed it as Giuseppe Antonio Landi, and it’s dedicated to a religious figure.
