Description:
- The drawing apparently depicts a coronation ceremony showing an interior resembling that of St. Peter's, Rome, looking towards the altar. Under the dome there is an elevated throne with a baldachin formed by a huge central crown with swags of red fabric which extend from the crown to the piers at the crossing. The design for a smaller structure which figures below is probably an earlier drawing.
