About this work

Design of a desk with inlay work with six rectangular panels, each with a mask in the center. On the desk is tableware. Above them, two candlesticks with a woman with a unicorn at her feet on the left and fleurs-de-lis crowned with a baldachin above them, with garlands leading to candles held up by putti. At the top, three consoles. Print is part of an album. Most likely a mirrored copy after a French original.
