A Triumphal Arch with Caparisoned Horses and Ornamented Pinnacles

Jacques Androuet Ducerceau I

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an architectural structure with arches, statues, and decorative horses. There are three barrel-vaulted arches with intricate moldings and statues of mythical figures. Above the arches is a cornice with three stylized spires adorned with relief carvings and medallions. At the top, there are three detailed statues of rearing horses above entrances. The drawing is rendered in precise linework, typical of neoclassical or Renaissance-inspired architectural studies.
