Ruins of an arch frame the composition on the left, balanced by a tower on the right. This drawing was probably made by Adrien Manglard as a 'ricordo' of one of his paintings. He would have made other versions of this drawing in preparation for an etching he published in 1753-4. This drawing was not used directly for transfer and there are additional figures and details in the drawing that do not appear in the final print.
