Created by the talented Italian artist Giovanni Battista Borra, this masterpiece is captured in brown and black ink and wash over graphite on laid paper. Measuring at 31.4x20 cm, it is currently housed in the esteemed Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in the USA. The image highlights an exquisite combination of Ionic volute and Corinthian acanthus leaf decoration, showcasing Borra's mastery of classical architecture. The carved cross-section reveals precise measurements and a harmonious blend of elements, including a fluted column, architrave, frieze, and relief sculpture. Every inch of this design exudes elegance and sophistication. It serves as a testament to Borra's exceptional skill in capturing architectural beauty through his artwork.
