This drawing shows fancy fireplaces and walls packed with sculptures. Statues of people stand on pedestals. Above them are carvings of faces and swirling designs. The middle fireplace has a woman sitting on a throne with a crown. The artist used lines to make it look like wood and stone. The drawing is black and white, but you can see shadows and texture. Look up etching to see how artists make prints like this.
