About this work

This drawing shows three views of an interior space. On the left and right are side walls with doors, windows, and built-in shelves. The middle is a ceiling plan with a central oval shape and smaller arches around it. Lines mark measurements and details like door handles. The sketch looks like a builder’s guide—every corner and panel is noted. This was likely made to plan out a room’s design step by step.
