This image shows two naked figures holding up a heavy, curved stone slab like a roof. Inside the frame, there’s a faded oval drawing of a building with people in it. The whole thing looks worn, like old paper. The title text says this is a "fragment" from a church in Bologna, Italy. It’s part of a series of prints collecting famous artworks. Want to see more? Check out the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
