Watercolor, ink and pencil on paper. Applied to cardboard, on which at the bottom appears the owner's pencil inscription "Inventions, interior of the temple of the god Brama. Original by Professor Antonio Basoli". Also present, at the bottom right, is the stamp "Professor Antonio Basoli". Given his long career as a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, it can be assumed that one of his students became the owner of this drawing by Basoli, probably a scenographic sketch. Antonio Basoli established himself as a scenographer and decorator. Thanks to his creativity, he was able to integrate the Bolognese scenographic traditions with new trends, such as the neoclassical style and romantic vedutism. His scenographic production, documented in the collection of booklets of the Biblioteca Marucelliana in Florence from 1808 to 1820, was very vast, as demonstrated by his numerous sketches preserved mostly in Bologna, Milan and Florence. The drawing is presented in a period frame.
