Little is known today about V. Germain, the artist who produced this drawing. Here, he focused on an interior scene with exacting detail, using a small group of figures at the sheet’s center to emphasize the massive scale of the castle where they have gathered. Germain focused on a variety of textured fabrics and luxury materials in this depiction of a castle interior.
