Nouveaux Livre de veue et batiments en perspective propre a peindre d'ans des Salles, ou autres appartements…[Amsterdam, c. 1700]

Daniel Marot and Isaac de Moucheron

National Gallery of Art

The image shows undulating, wavy lines repeating in a pattern across the surface, creating a sense of rhythm and movement. The abstract design resembles marbled paper, with swirling lines of red, blue, and yellow tones interlacing. The visual effect is akin to overlapping scales or ripples on a body of water, blending colors in a chaotic yet harmonious manner.
