The Two Crowns

Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a scene with an elevated viewpoint. Near the top, there is a horizon with a distant landscape and a cliff-like structure. In the center, there is a detailed crown with a human face. Below the crown, there is a laurel wreath, scrolls, and a rocky landscape as the background. The color palette is monochromatic with dark ink strokes on light paper.
