Trompe l'Oeil: Landscapes and Sheep, Using Original Copperplates

Milanese 18th Century, and Francesco Londonio

National Gallery of Art

In the image, there are two large drawings stacked in the center. One features sheep and the other depicts a rural house with smoke rising and trees in the background. The color palette includes shades of gray, white, and beige. The drawings are contained within an ornate oval-shaped frame with intricate floral and scroll designs around the border. The sheep drawing slightly overlaps the rural scene, both are angled slightly from each other, creating a sense of layered depth.
