This painting shows a tracing of a fountain on one side and sketches of two faces on the other. It's interesting because the artist used both sides of the paper to create different drawings. The use of both sides suggests the artist was experimenting with different ideas. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist: Lievin Cruyl (Flemish, c. 1640-c. 1720)
