Chairish Description

A timeless piece for lovers of classical design and architectural history: this architectural illustration lithograph attributed to Giorgio Domenico Fossati (Italian, 1705–1785), featuring a refined depiction of a classical temple elevation with sculptural roof figures, columned façade, and measured drafting details.

The composition is beautifully balanced with subtle, sophisticated color—cool green at the pediment, warm stone tones throughout the structure, and precise linework that captures the elegance of 18th-century Italian architectural study. The lower portion includes the original technical notation elements, adding authenticity and visual interest for collectors and design enthusiasts alike.

Presented in a handsome, traditional frame with a ribbed inner edge detail and wide matting, this piece is ready to hang and makes an exceptional statement in a library, office, entry hall, living room, or gallery wall—especially paired with other architectural prints for a curated, Old World look.
