This print shows a grand square with a big building in the middle. People are walking, riding horses, and sitting around. At the top, statues line a balcony. Below, a fountain sits in front of the building. The ground is rocky, and groups of people are scattered around. The artist used lines to create depth and detail. This style was common in the 1700s. Look up etching to see how artists like this made prints.
