Description: | Sketch for a ceiling decoration. Allegorical and mythological figures including nymphs, satyrs and cherubs amongst dense clouds. The scene is framed by a rectangle with semi-circular extensions to the left and right. The frame, probably intended to be executed in stucco, is painted in white-grey; beyond the frame the canvas shows the same white-grey colouring, which indicates that only the central part of the ceiling was intended to be decorated with the allegorical scene.
Technique: oil on canvas
